Just wanted to say thanks again for the guides and spreadsheets they have helped immensely. However a few questions remain - partly because of some contradictory information -- or what I perceive as contradictory. Perhaps its just attributed to "playing styles" / personal preference and there is no "right answer". At least not just one right answer.
I played for a week or so without reading the manual so to speak -- so I leveled up a bit and added a pile mob members. I've since tried to "set up camp" -- slow things down and concentrate on my economy and general "hood maintenance". Although I do get a certain amount of enjoyment from robbing, following "goals" and trying to obtain the briefcase containing that ever elusive 10th Document --- all this activity of course levels me up albeit slower than I was progressing in my 1st week with CC.
After reading many forum posts and various guides --- I'm still confused as to how many mob members I should have at my current level (mid 40's). I had ~900 lol :D and since slimed down to 200 (that includes 33 Henchmen which I know are just non-player mob members I picked up doing “goals” )
#2) I have been saving my "respect" generally just purchasing one respect item as they become available. I think I have a good handle on what to do with my respect points --- but still not entirely clear what other "weapons" I should purchase and how many. I get that I need one of each for each mob member --- and the best of what I have is carried into battle. I guess I'm searching for opinions on what items to stockpile i.e. which give best bang for the buck / will last longest.
I noticed there's quite the discrepancy in what people do wrt buildings and weapons. I used to think if someone got to level 200 they'd have to be a pretty good player --- then I came across this clown :D
Name: will remain nameless to protect the silly :D
Level 200 !!
# of mob members: 249
total mafia attack: 4959
total mafia defense: 6898

No it’s not me LOL but it could be if it wasn’t for the help from those on this forum :P
