1. Mafia Wars Annihilation
Welcome to the Mafia Wars Annihilation course.
You are going to learn how you can easily annihilate the popular game,
Mafia Wars.
Before we begin I need to let you know something. If you want a book
full of fluff, talking about a load of rubbish that you don’t need to know,
you’re in the wrong place.
I’m sick of guides that are 30-40 pages, but half of it is just them
blabbering on when they don’t need to.
I have a unique style of writing. Straight to the point, no time wasting. If
you’re happy with that... let’s begin 
This first chapter of many books is all about the creator. How great they
are... How they spent years researching and writing the book etc. Who
really cares about that? I don’t thinking anyone does, so let’s jump
straight in.

2. The Basics
Mafia Wars as a game is as the name suggests, is about the mafia. Now
this simple thing is often forgotten or bypassed by a lot of the players. If
you were in a real life mafia and went outside on your own, you
wouldn’t last 5 minutes.
Maybe you would be able to go down the corner shop and purchase
something, but that’s as far as it goes.
The same rule applies in Mafia Wars.
You need to build a powerful mafia if you want to annihilate this game.
Let’s just go over the most important aspects of the game, so that you
have an understanding of the game as a whole. We will then go over
them in more detail later on in the book.
Mafia Size
A lot of people say that having a massive mafia, is not the way to go.
That it’s harder, more expensive etc. As long as you follow this guide
properly, having a massive mafia size is going to let you annihilate the
game.
Having a larger mafia, does cost more, because you have to outfit each
one with armour and a weapon. If you follow the cash flow system in
this ebook, the money won’t be a problem.
Jobs
At some point in Mafia Wars, you are going to have to do some jobs.
Each job will give you a certain amount of currency depending on where
you are. You will also gain the experience needed to level up your mafia.
(As you do complete jobs, you will also gain something called “godfather
points.” – It’s important that you do not spend these until you have read
the appropriate section of this book).
Cash flow

3. Getting cash in Mafia Wars is easy, but at the same time, very important.
You need cash to purchase the weapons and armour that will en-sure
you are as strong as you need to be. There are numerous ways of
making money:
• Fighting
• Businesses
• Jobs
• Robbing
• Hitlist
Fighting
Fighting in Mafia Wars, is one of my favourite things. To me, it shows
how strong your mafia is against other mafias. If you have rubbish
armour and weapons, you will lose nearly every fight.
The explanation of fighting is easy.
You need good weapons so that you can kill them easily.
You also need good armour though, in case they have good weapons.
As long as you keep buying the best weapons and armour along your
journey in Mafia Wars, you will win nearly every fight. I say nearly
because sometimes you will lose a fight, even if you have the best
items. Mafia Wars introduced a system so that sometimes you will lose a
fight, to make the game more interesting.
The Hitlist

4. For whatever reason, you may want to put someone on the hitlist. Most
people just stick friends on there for a laugh. What happens is that you
put someone on the hitlist for a price. For this example, let’s say you put
$100,000 down as a price. If someone comes along and kills that
person, you have to pay out $100,000.
As long as you have good items, this is actually a good way to make
money yourself. Take a look at the hitlist for someone that can be killed
for a nice sum of money... BAM, maybe $1-3 million in your bank.
A lot of players in Mafia Wars get put on the hitlist, so there will always
be people for you to take out.
Leveling
Just like most games, in Mafia Wars you can level up.
You level up by winning fights, and doing jobs. Each give you experience
points. Once you do level up, you gain 5 skill points. As a bonus, you
also receive 1 “godfather” point.
The godfather points can be used to purchase tons of different stuff like
health refills etc. Personally, I only suggest spending them on the
weapons you can buy. These are some of the best in the games.
The skill points can be used to improve you character in 5 different
ways.
Attack - Increase your attack to do more damage and win more fights.
Defence - Increase your defence to repel more attacks.
Health - Increase your max health to survive intense fights.
Energy - Increase your max energy to do more jobs.
Stamina - Increase your stamina to fight more often. (Requires 2
godfather points)
At the start of the game, you will want to put most of your skill points in
Energy. This way you can do more jobs, which will equal more money.
Keep putting your skill points in energy until you have around 60.

5. After that, it’s up to you where you wish to put your points.
Depending on what you like doing, you will need to put points in the
appropriate places. I could tell you to always put points in Attack, but
what’s the point if you don’t like fighting?
Building Your Mafia Size
That’s the basics out of the way. Now, it’s time to start building your
mafia size.
A lot of people have the assumption that this is a time consuming thing
to do, so don’t do it. Big mistake. With the methods I explain below, you
will gain a massive mafia.
You can only have 501 mafia members, so keep that in mind. You can
actually have more, but they won’t attribute to your mafia’s
strength/defence... so its pointless having more than the maximum.
There are literally around 10 different ways to raise your mafia size. I’m
only going to show you 3.
“What?! Why are you only going to show me 2?”
I bet that’s what you just thought. Well to be honest the first way I only
suggest because it’s nice to have people that you know play the game
with you. The second way will literally get you around 60 friend invites a
time.
They both take about 5 minutes max a day to do.
5 days and you will have the maximum friends that you need. This slow
build up will also allow you to catch up on improving your items. Simple
.
Step 1 – Recruit Friends

6. Mafia Wars has an inbuilt function that allows you to invite your friends
to join your mafia network. All you do is select the names you wish to
invite and click send. It’s that simple. It will then send your signup link
to all the people you selected.
The only problem with this is that a lot of people get so many
application requests these days. Most people simply ignore them. That’s
not what we want.
What I suggest doing is contacting your friends one-on-one.
You could use the social networks message system, use MSN Messenger
or whatever other way you contact friends on a daily basis. Just send
them a nice message, asking them kindly to add you as a mafia
member.
You will of course need to get your signup link from inside the game, to
give to your friends to use.
Step 2 – Post In The Official Forms
Not many people know about this method of getting your mafia size
huge in such a little time.
The company behind Mafia Wars is called “Zynga”. Well, after a little
exploring I found out they actually have their own forum. I know you
want to play the game, not spend your time in a forum... but hear me
out.
After browsing around, I found out they had a section that was
dedicated to asking for people to add you in Mafia Wars. Exactly what
we want!
Here’s a direct link to that section. (Ignore the ugly link)
http://forums.zynga.com/forumdisplay.php?
s=a8a6757ddc2143a9b663908b786f294d&f=40

7. Before you go posting in the forum, you will need to sign up for a free
account. Please make sure to also read the rules so that you don’t get
banned.
Make sure that you post in the correct section. As they have different
ones for each social network.
The key to getting a ton of mafia members from this method is how you
write your request. If you go take a look now, you will see a lot of
people just posting “Add Me” with their link. Completely the wrong thing
to do.
You need to look like a grown up, helpful player.
Here’s a template that you can use. You will need to fill in gaps before
posting.
“Hello Everyone,
I’m looking for some people to join my mafia on _______.
Currently I’m level ______ but am growing daily.
I give out energy boosts daily and try to gift as many items
as I can.
Will also help kill anyone on your hitlist if I can.
PUTYOURLINKHERE”
If you post that, you will look like the perfect player. You will have tons
of people requesting to join your mafia.
Building your mafia size is important, but it’s pointless unless you equip
them with the correct items. I see this problem all the time. I attack
someone with 501 mafia members, but I beat them on a newly created
account with only 2 mafia members.
Without good items on your mafia, you are weak!

8. Now these items cost money. Without the money, well you can’t buy the
items. So what we will do now is cover Jobs. This way you will be able
to get a ton of money, invest it in businesses and then buy the items
that you will need.
Completing jobs also can give you some items, which is always helpful
when you don’t have to pay for them.
Jobs
When you first start doing jobs in Mafia Wars, you start out as a “street
thug”
If you do what I mentioned earlier, and put all your skill points into
Energy until you have about 60 in there, you won’t have any problems
doing the jobs. If you do end up needing more energy points, top it up.
Each job will require you to have some items before you can do them.
Start off with the cheapest ones, and then build your way up using the
money from completing previous jobs.
If you have a problem purchasing the job items, purchase the items for
the first job you can get. Do that same job a few times to get a nice
chunk of money. Invest that in one of the businesses you can purchase,
and use that business to help fund the other jobs.
Always try and do the jobs that require the most energy first. Even
though this means you will run out of energy straight away at a low
level, it also means you get more experience quicker. In turn, that
means you will level quicker, increase your energy quicker and also gain
more money than doing the small jobs.
When you level up, you also have all your health, energy and stamina
filled up.
This will speed up the process of going through all the jobs dramatically.
You may also notice that each time you do a certain job a little bar next
to it rises up. If you fill up the bars of each job in that section, the jobs
will raise a level. This will increase the experience and money you will
receive for completing them.

9. If you get each job in that section to level 3, you gain a very special
item. If you can, try and get these items. They can cut your countdown
timers in half and many other things.
Here’s a list of the weapons you need and the loot you will get from
every section of jobs available.

Generating Some Extra Cash
Now you should have some nice cash in your bank from doing the jobs
that you can. Even though you should gain quite a lot, you will still need
a lot more to buy all the items you need to make your mafia stronger.
You can earn money a few different ways in Mafia Wars.
What I’ve done below is created a cash flow plan for you to use. This
will enable to make a lot of cash easily.
• Do Some Jobs – while jobs don’t payout the best money wise,
it’s important that you do some initially to get your cash flow
started. Do the biggest job you can, that pays the best a few
times. This will also increase your experience points a little, so that
always helps as well.
• Start Investing – From the money that you gain from doing
some jobs, it’s time to invest that money in some businesses.
Businesses are one of the easiest ways to make money. Once you
purchase them they make money forever, without requiring any
more work.
It’s really important that the first businesses you buy are “Mafia
Mikes.” The payout is really good for a very small price upfront.
That is what we need, especially when starting out. They are
actually the best ROI business in the game. So make sure you buy
as many as you can. Once you have bought the maximum you
can, you should be bringing in a hefty sum of money each hour.

13. This is where you will want to start purchasing some weapons and
armour, so we can move onto the next stages of your cash flow
plan.
• Fighting – Once you have started getting some weapons and
armour, you will be slowly getting strong enough to fight while
waiting for your money each hour from your businesses.
Every time you fight someone you will lose 1 stamina point, so
there is a maximum you can actually fight. Doing this in between
waiting for your business money is perfect though. All the money
we need right now is helpful.
• Top-up – You are nearly able to rob people. Robbing is the best
way in this game to make easy money quickly. Before you do that
though, you may want to do the last few steps for a little while to
save up some cash. Purchase even more weapons and armour
before you continue.
• Robbing – This is the part where you cash just explodes. When
you rob another mafias business, you can make about $2-3 million
for just using one stamina point. Nice, I know.
How much you make from robbing will really depend on what type
of business you try and rob. The more expensive the business, the
more you will make. Whenever you have a chance, it’s really
important that only rob the casinos. Casinos payout the most
money, so try and focus your robberies on them.

14. If you do all the above in order, you really will make a ton of cash really
fast.
Here’s a quick breakdown in simple steps for you.
Step 1 - Do jobs to get initial cash flow.
Step 2 - Invest in some “Mafia Mike” businesses.
Step 3 – Upgrade your weapons/armour.
Step 4 – Start fighting while waiting for cash flow from businesses.
Step 5 – Upgrade weapons/armour even further.
Step 6 – Rob Businesses, casinos are you main target.
Fighting
You should now have a nice cash flow coming in and started to purchase
some items for your mafia. It’s so important that you purchase the items
that I have to repeat it 100 times. Without them, you will not annihilate
Mafia Wars.
In this section I’m going to talk about fighting in Mafia Wars.
Fighting is something that not everyone likes doing. Its not very
rewarding, but I love just jumping in to some fights when I’m waiting for
other things.
Winning a fight does depend on a few variables.
• Your Mafia Size

15. • Your Health
• Your Mafias Weapons And Armour
• Your opponents Mafia size/weapons/armour
• Luck (There is a small amount of “luck” in fighting. Sometimes
someone with 1 mafia member can beat you. The game does this
to spice things up.
From looking at the different variables, we can work out that we can
raise our chances of winning a fight by increasing certain variables.
Mafia Size
This is an obvious one. If you have more mafia members, you have
more people to help you out in fights. Like I said earlier, you can have a
maximum of 501 members in your mafia, so you need to fill that as
much as you can. Use the 2 steps I showed you earlier to build you
mafia size.
Health
When you start a fight, the system basically gives each player a turn
each to attack. Whoever is left with the most health wins. While you
defence armour dramatically helps you, your health also comes into play.
With more health, your opponent has to do more damage to kill you.
You can raise your health by putting points into when you level.
Although it is good to put some of your skill points in health, don’t go
overboard. But if fighting is all you want to do in Mafia Wars, feel free to
put as many as you wish in here.
Mafias Weapons/Armour
This is the most important variable in fighting.
With the best weapons, you will deal the most damage. With the best
armour, the opponent won’t be able to hurt you as much. As you can
see, you really need to invest in both of those if you wish to fight a lot.

16. Each mafia member can use only 1 weapon, armour and vehicle. So for
example if you have 501 mafia members, you will need to purchase 501
weapons, armours and vehicles.
Any more than that and they just don’t help you at all.
So when equipping your mafia, bear that in mind.
Getting The Most Out Of Your Mafia
Seeming as you’re at this stage of the ebook, you should have a massive
mafia, have plenty of cash flow and the best items that you can get in
Mafia Wars. With all these in place, you really can annihilate the game.
You will win fights all the time...
Successfully rob tons of Casinos...
But what would you say if I told you, there something else you can do
with your mafia that will help you even more.
You can actually place 6 of your “Top Mafia” team members in special
slots that give you a massive boost on certain things. Hopefully you have
actually started adding people in your mafia so you can do this.
To put people in these spots, click on “My Mafia” section in the game
and promote the player that you want, into the appropriate spaces.
Here’s a description of each of the space available.
Mastermind - Choose a member with many jobs completed to promote
to Mastermind to get more experience points from doing jobs. Your
Mastermind gains a small chance of gaining 50% more experience when
performing jobs.
Wheelman - Choose a member with the Fearless character type and a
high level to promote to Wheelman to get a reduced energy cost for
jobs. Your Wheelman gains a small chance to perform jobs for no
energy.

17. Button Man - Choose a member with the Maniac character type and a
high level to promote to Button Man to get an Attack bonus. Your Button
Man gains a small chance to always win fights they initiate.
Bodyguard - Choose a member with many fights won to promote to
Bodyguard to get a Defence bonus. Your Bodyguard gains a small
chance to always win fights when they are attacked.
Safecracker - Choose a member with many successful heists to
promote to Safecracker to get more money from fighting and robbing.
Your Safecracker gains a small chance to gain double the money when
fighting or robbing.
Bagman - Choose a member with the Mogul character type and a high
level to promote to Bagman to get more money from jobs. Your Bagman
gains a small chance to gain double the money when performing jobs.
The “Godfather” Points
Godfather points are actually a secret way of annihilating Mafia Wars.
You see, most people spend them straight away on a health refill, or a
stamina refill. DOH! Defiantly do not spend your godfather points on
money.
Personally I would suggest saving up and purchasing as many of the
items that are for sale. Some of the best armour/weapons in Mafia Wars
can only be purchased via Godfather points.
There are 4 ways of gaining godfather points.
You can gain 1 godfather point for every level you gain in the game.
That’s not many I know. But that’s because they are so valuable if used
correctly. Every little helps I suppose.

18. You can also purchase them if you wish. I wouldn’t recommend doing
that though, you could easily start spending too much and then the
whole point of Mafia Wars would be out the window.
You can also do some free surveys. I do these all the time go get quick,
easy godfather points. I would say that nearly everyone who wants the
points does the free surveys.
All you do is fill out for example you name and email on a website and
then within 15-60 minutes you Mafia Wars account gets credited with
the point.
If you do wish to do this though, make sure you create a throwaway
email. The spam mail you will get from these surveys is unbelievable.
They sell your email left, right and center.
Along with free surveys, you can also sign up to paid programs to get a
massive influx of points. Sign up for a paid trial at blockbuster for
example and you can easily get 100 points.
Make sure you read the small print on the paid offers though, as some
of them can be pretty sneaky!
Other Hints & Tips
• Always keep your money safely in the bank. If people rob you, you
will lose quite a lot of money, which you don’t want. Yes, the bank
takes 10% as a money laundering fee, but its worth its weight in
gold.
• Buy some Casinos that you don’t care about. Just like you can rob
peoples businesses, they can do the same to you. If you have a
casino, they will straight away go for that, and then leave. This will
leave all your other business to keep on raking in the money.
