Default How I can earn money

How I can earn money?


Sure there are several ways on how to earn money.
Here we will show you a common one:

At the beginning you should raise your regular income. Go to Management Personnel Hire/Fire personnel, and hire the following persons:

3x Protection Team A
3x Protection Team D
Regular income: $126 (Playmoney)

1x Pimp
5x Class A prostitute
Regular income: $110 (Playmoney)

45x Sidewalk hustlers
Regular income: $135 (Playmoney)

Less the running expenses you will have a income of $371 every 3 hours. You have used $1.640 of your starting balance.

Now you buy 1 Class B truck (Management Fleet expand the fleet) and 1 henchman (Management Personnel Hire/Fire personnel). Afterwards go to Business Smuggling and choose to buy Booze (out from canada or mexico, take the one which has a shorter miles by land). It is advisable to buy booze at a price (buy price) of under $10, and after the return of the convoy to sell it at a price (sell price) of over $16 (these guidlines are for the beginning to get faster playmoney).

Now that your convoy is on the way, you have to extend your warehouse (Management Warehouse), so that the booze can be unloaded from the truck (it takes 3 hours for the extension). At the beginning you should only extend warehouse that your convoys are able to unload. This will keep your running expenses low.

Now under Business Special revenues, you can earn some playmoney with these little tasks. The success of each task will be choosen by a random generator, thus its possible that you have a task finished at the first time, but you need more than 1 one time to finish another task.

Upon arrival of your trucks, sell now your booze (Management Warehouse), and send the trucks again with a new load (Business Smuggling). With the money you have earned from that convoy you can now buy another Class B truck with a henchman and start another convoy.

! - At the beginning it is advisable to not sent the trucks at once, so you will not have to extend your warehouse capacity always.

Wit the rest of your money you can start to buy some buildings for your district. It is advisable to start with the brothel (Business Prostitution), as these have the highest regular income per every 3 hours. For each brothel you need a pimp.

By this you extend your district bit by bit, and extend your fleet. Once you have enough money, you should start to build a small runway as well as a small train station and later on a big runway and train station.


Good luck !

Default Why the time in this forum isn't correct

In the User Controlpanel (top left of the forum), under Settings & Options -> Edit Options you can find the option Date & Time. Choose there the correct time zone for you as well as the DST (daylight savings tims) settings appropriate for you.
At the end of that screen, you can save those changes.

Default Did not found a solution for my problem. What shall I do?

→ Search for the appropriate forum (! - look at the description of each forum to find out, which one is the most appropriate one) and create a new thread.
→ Choose a meaningful title eq. "Why did my fleet has gone?". This will make it easier for others, which do have the same problem. (! - Titles like „Help“, „ ... “, „Whats wrong?“, and similar are hardly to find for others).
→ Try to describe your problem as precious as possible, so that it will be easier for us or other users to help you and we won't loose time by asking back.


! - Please always post your User ID as well as the district ID (or District no) in case you have more than 1 district.

In case a convoy on your smuggling screen shows a red negative number (eq -10) it means, that the service life of that convoy has ended and that the vehicles, after they arrived at your warehouse, will be gone. But don't worry, you can immediatley rebuy them after.

Default Special personnel

There are 2 different kinds of special personnel (herein after called SP):



1 - Buyable SP
→ you can get it on the black market by bidding on it or buy it directly with safe dollars, or you can buy it within several premium items.

! - The following prices are just the prices for immediate buy.

! - All the SP will be deleted every first day of every month at 06:00am CET (GMT +01:00) no matter, when you bought it.


Vehicle fleet consigliere (FC)
This consigliere takes care of your entire fleet of vehicles. As long as you have him working for you, your vehicles will not depreciate in value. He also increases the speed of your smuggling convoys by 5%.

Safe dollar: 7,500


War consigliere (WC)
You can choose how many bodyguards and killers your consigliere should hire for each district here, but only if you have enough money to guarantee a minimum amount of armament. You no longer need to go into each district to hire personnel for that district.

With the WC you can also fire personnel.

Safe dollar: 15,000


Warehouse manager (WM)
This guy empties all the warehouses in all your districts in the city where you are currently. This saves a lot of time when you have a large number of districts, so that you can use the time for more useful things like attacking your opponents.

Safe dollar: 7,500


Night watchman (NW)
When the watchman is on duty, attackers are deterred from starting an attack against you, meaning you'll be completely safe between midnight and 6:00am CET (GMT +01:00). Your district can't be targeted and attacked during this period. That's one thing you can be completely sure of!

Safe dollar: 30,000


Police informer (PI)
The informer guarantees you protection against police raids. He's at the source of information and can provide you with the right tips to avoid police controls.

Safe dollar: 25,000


Scarface (SF)
With his experience, he makes sure the the skill levels of your personnel in the areas of experience and strength are maintained at their top value. All newly bought personnel (killers, bodyguards and thugs) have from the very beginning, and at the very latest at every full hour, their 100% values.

Safe dollar: 7,500



2 - Rentable SP
→ you can rent it under ManagementHire personnel. It has a hire price (once) as well as a rental cost per day. Everyday at midnight CET (GMT +01:00) the rent for the next day will be automaticllay deducted from your account

! - If there isn't enough safe dollars for a rent, the system will automatically fire that personnel

Rentable SP will be gone, if you either fire it or the system fires it.


Driving trainer (DT)
The driving trainer accelerates all of your land convoys, i.e. those with trucks and trains, by 25%. He'll cost you a certain fee to hire: This fee will be calculated in game dollars based on your rank. The safe dollars are a set at a certain fee for each level. Every day at midnight the fee for the following day will be deducted from your account. You can fire him at any time.

Hiring fee:
450 safe dollar plus play money (depends on the rank):

Newbie - 500 play money
Mafiosi - 600 play money
Don - 2,000 play money
Grand-Don - 4,000 play money
Godfather - 10,000 play money
Grand-Godfather - 20,000 play money
Padrone - 40,000 play money
Grand-Padrone - 100,000 play money

Rental costs (per day):
300 safe dollar plus play money (depends on the rank):

Newbie - 500 play money
Mafiosi - 600 play money
Don - 2,000 play money
Grand-Don - 4,000 play money
Godfather - 10,000 play money
Grand-Godfather - 20,000 play money
Padrone - 40,000 play money
Grand-Padrone - 100,000 play money


Wood consigliere (OC)
With the wood consigliere you can always have a predefined amount of wood or coal in storage at your disposal. He'll cost you a certain fee to hire: This fee will be calculated in game dollars based on your rank. The safe dollars are a set at a certain fee for each level. Every day at midnight the fee for the following day will be deducted from your account. You can fire him at any time.

Hiring fee:
250 safe dollar plus play money (depends on the rank):

Newbie - 250 play money
Mafiosi - 500 play money
Don - 1,000 play money
Grand-Don - 2,000 play money
Godfather - 5,000 play money
Grand-Godfather - 10,000 play money
Padrone - 20,000 play money
Grand-Padrone - 50,000 play money

Rental costs (per day):
150 safe dollar plus play money (depends on the rank):

Newbie - 250 play money
Mafiosi - 500 play money
Don - 1,000 play money
Grand-Don - 2,000 play money
