For those of you that have been hiding under a rock for the past month like I have (sorry, fans), here's a quick update on some of the things that happened to the Mob Wars game on Facebook.
The developers have valiantly launched a multi-city version (lovingly called the London edition) a couple of weeks ago. It unfortunately didn't work too well, and it was retracted soon after.
The plan is now to provide more Jobs, Stockpile and more City Buildings instead.
Long term mobsters (well ok, more than a month old at least) would have noticed that some Establishments have been moved off the Beachfront Lot and renamed.
On the stockpile side, you can now buy CheyTac .408 (weapon) and Tactical Armor. And a Cargo Plane.. (I believe you have to be past level 45 to enjoy these).
Have I left anything out? Drop me a comment.
Cheers,

Version 1.72
Latest V1.72 posted (thanks Kevin for the bug find)
The V1.71 upgrade to my spreadsheet was done by Matt.
I've tested it out and it looks good, so I'll not try to fix my own. It is now available at the download link on the right side of this blog.
And phew, good thing that London is out of play for now.
Sorry to all my fans, that i've been out of commission for so long..
I've been on a mousehunt, and had been busy putting together the mousehuntguide (shameless plug but it's my blog!)
Enjoy!

Waiting up the Next Mob Wars
Fans of FB Mob Wars who have been waiting too long for the Mob Wars upgrade may wish to hop onto this group and join it.

This is a silent and peaceable protest that is aimed to nudge the MW developer to deliver as well as to show support that the fans are still with him..

Your Hitlist Price
Ever wondered how much it costs to hitlist you?
In your Mob wars game, click on My Stats. Then Add to Hitlist. You will see your price there.
It should work out to this formula:
$10*passive income+$5,000+$20*(number of people you've hitlisted).
If you had been recently hitlisted, your price will be DOUBLED for about 2 hours. This is to deter multiple hitlistings on you.
But of course, it doesn't always work :)
So start getting your passive income up. Use this mob wars calculator as a Next Best Buy guide.
Don't be a poor target...

Strategy with Banks
If you are new to Mob Wars, you probably do not earn enough to do LandBanking (see earlier posts) yet. You have little choice but to pay the bank tax of 10% each time you deposit, just to keep your meager savings from the more professional mobsters.
In your early stages, you will be growing your income doing jobs and paying the banker. Buy Villas and Restaurants when you can. By the time you can afford the Apartment, you should be able to begin your LandBanking.
Banks should then be used to store cash for your Hospital expenses. I have also used banks to store leftover cash, after making all my purchases and land bank deposit at the end of my gaming session (no, I can't play this all day).
Newbie Tip on how to use the Mob Wars Calculator:
Based on the ROI recommendation, you will be prompted to buy Hotels and Restaurants even though you can't afford it yet. Just plug a high number in those fields (like '99') and all will be fine. Remember to remove the number plug once in a while to check if you can afford the Restaurant or Hotel. You can stop using the number plug once you can afford them.
Plug a higher number for the Properties that you do not yet see in your game.
Enjoy!
