Top Five Ways to Improve Your Mafia in Mafia Wars

After playing Mafia Wars for a few weeks, we've found that learning how to play Zynga's popular game is best done by playing it. Yet, the lack of a true manual on how to play often adds a level of confusion as players waste time trying to find out how to play the game better. One of those confusing areas is managing one's mafia. Comprised of your social networking buddies, you're in charge of supplying weapons, armor and vehicles for them so that you can make a stronger mafia, which is measured by your Mafia Attack Strength and your Mafia Defense Strength. The higher your numbers, the more likely you'll win loot, money and experience. As long as you start with these simple mafia strengthening tips.


1. Add Powerful Friends to Your Mafia

As with any game on a social network (Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, etc.), you're bound to have friends that are already playing. With higher attack scores, increased stamina and more health, your seasoned pro friends can help you advance a bit faster and help in the later levels to take down bosses. Be sure to add these pros to your top mafia to help further enhance your thug adventures.
