How come I don't use all my maffia's weapons? I use a lot less weapons than my opponent when trying to rob them, so I usually loose, how come? I have plenty weapons to spare.

Example 1:
I have 182 maffia and used 538 items, the person I robbed had 183 maffia but used 604 items

Example 2:
I have 182 maffia and used 538 items, the person I robbed had 161 maffia but used 534 items

Each mafia member can equip 1 mellee item, one gun, one piece of armour and a vehicle.

So it's about spreading the types of weapons you have. So for exame you have 182 mafia. It doesn't matter if you have 200 guns. You can only use 182 of them.

You need to make sure you have at least 182 guns, 182 pieces of armour and 182 mellee weapons. Then Amy spare cash you have after that look at vehicles.

You're probably low on vehicles, they're always the lowest total.

Ah, I get it now, thanks. I thought I only have to supply weapons for my ~18 stooges. I though all other maffia friends bring 1x4 items of their own

Ironically that's a popular assumption here.

OK so I have 162 people in my mafia and I use 146 equipment in battle. According to my profile I have 655 weapons, 232 armor and 117 vehicles. I'm level 52. So my understanding is that at level 52 I could have up to 260 people in my mafia, so that's not limiting it. I get that I only have 117 vehicles so that's not maxed out, but I should be using somewhere around 600 pieces of equipment not 146. Can anyone explain this to me?

You have Android. The number displayed is the number of unique items you have, not the total number of weapons you use. The syndicate wars actually match the iOS attacking system, I believe, and that one will tell you the correct number.

it can definitely be confusing. I try to make sure that I have 1 melee, 1 vehicle, 1 gun, and 1 explosive per mafia. It is very difficult to control though. having more that enough is fine. but having not enough is killer to your A/D.

Thanks. I'll concentrate on adding to my mafia and seeing if that helps raise the numbers. I just started looking at the forum so I think my IpH sucks so that's my other focus. If anyone has any advice for a newbie feel free to PM me. Thanks again.

You could, but you'd look like a tool.
