Mafia Wars Animals With Stats and Location

28
Apr/101

With animals becoming a big part of the Mafia Wars experience I thought that I would give you a list of all of the available animals, their stats, and where they came from.

As you will notice some of these animals are not available at the moment because they came from special events or holidays but not to worry since Zynga seems to recycle items and moves them into the Marketplace on a regular basis.

In the following list the current location of each animal is listed. If they are available in the Marketplace but came from say St. Patrick’s Day only the Marketplace will be listed.

The Low Down On The Mafia Wars Chop Shop

14
Apr/100

The Chop Shop is the first Mafia Wars property that does not generate some form of cash, but who needs cash when you have hot cars. The Chop Shop was introduced on February 18^th 2010. In this article you will not only learn how the Chop Shop works, you will learn which vehicles you can build and exactly what the requirements are.

Getting Your Chop Shop Set Up

In order to get your Chop Shop up and running you will need to acquire 50 items.

10 Cement Blocks
10 Power Tools
10 Car Lift
10 Acetylene Torches
10 Shipping Containers

These items do not drop from jobs but there are two ways to get them. First you can get them through gifting. Having a large mafia is a big advantage here since you can have your shop set up very quickly. The Second way that you can get the items is to purchase them with Reward Points at a cost of 1 point per items. I don’t know about you but I can find better things to spend Reward Points on.

If you don’t have the items and have a decent sized mafia all it takes is sending out a request.

Up Grading Your Chop Shop

Once again you will not need any cash to upgrade. The cost of upgrading is in parts is listed below.

Level	Cost In Parts	Parts Produced Per Day
1	50	10
2	25	11
3	30	13
4	35	16
5	40	20
6	45	25
7	50	31
8	55	38
9	60	46
10	65	55
11	70	65
12	75	75

With the exception of the starting items you can find various parts by doing jobs and fighting other players.

Type	Found by/in
Car Part	Collect From the Chop Shop Business, random loot from jobs and fights, any city

Dec/091

Here we are just a few days before Christmas. In no time jolly ole Saint Nick will be making his yearly rounds and the snow is falling in the United States. With the spirit of Christmas in the air many of us think of our loved ones and look forward to spending time around the Christmas tree.

Zynga has been busy this year as well. When we had scheduled maintenance on Friday, December 12th, I thought that they may implement the Bangkok expansion but I was mistaken. Instead they were setting up a blowout sale, setting up Holiday Event, and presenting us with a charity to which we can contribute.
