Garf226 (#5962). I have no clue what I’m doing. Help me! (if you can find it in your little pimp heart to). Please don’t slaughter me, though.

To all the newbies out there: AK’s are the key.

A strat that I like to use in the beginning is to buy about 250 pistoles, that way my thugs will stay fairly happy (give them beer too!) while I build up my forces. If you start out finding 15 thugs, but only have 2 AK’s; you’re thugs are going to leave you. But if you have 15 thugs and 250 pistoles, everyone is going to be happy and you can take your money and buy some AK’s. The pistoles are a cheap way of keeping thugs happy, they don’t protect you at all though so be sure to get AK’s.

FTR, I’m not going to have the time to head/manage the cartel, so if you play RL a _lot_ (just to kinda keep up on the thug/uzi buying) let me know and you can get promoted! (If only real life were this easy.) 🙂

Anybody having a hard time logging in right now? I was at work playing and now when I get home It wont accept my password. I see that in the games link it says 0/10,000 players. Did the game reset? is the server down? I need a fix ☹

which is better, networth or firepower? I’m finding my friend is the Tec-9 early, it’s cheap, and throws a good amout of lead. you cant’ afford too many ak’s in the early stages, so the tec 9 is your buddy.
