Well, I don’t know what else you expect anyone to tell you, things don’t happen over night, not to mention there is still a ton of room in cities there are families in.

The longer the wait the better in my mind, people should not be given auth just because there is room to set someone up, no point in setting up a bunch of new families when the ones around are not full yet. In my mind, people look towards authing someone when they have a certain someone who is ready and the city as a hole is ready to expand, I would rather have less leaders and bigger crews within my city then 5 leaders with barely any members. From my knowledge, this way makes for a stronger city and allows new families the chance to grow without competition from there own city. As for the vacant cities, I wouldn’t be in a rush to get another city going until again I know my own city was full, and working towards full potential.

Just my two cents on how I would treat the situation if I was in the family heads shoes….

Take care.

It is a tough decision I am sure to those on top making the big moves.. at one point you do not want to cut your forces too thin (as was stated by a Godfather) while at the same time as my friend Liza said, it is a loss of profits the longer these city's stay empty.

Pulls out a map and unrolls it on the marble table..

Finding a middle ground is not an easy thing to do, and although we have a lot of high ranked mobsters around these streets - the reality of it is if you are not set up with the right amount of bodyguards, the right help and the right presence and knowledge of our world - those on top will not send you out just to die a few weeks later or when shit hits the fan. There has been instances of leaders making it very far without having the right things at the start at the start that is a rare occasion and not the norm, but can be accomplished with dedication and the right people working for you so do not let me be misunderstood when I say this.

Those of us who keep our eyes open and watch things notice the world growing stronger quickly, bodyguard numbers, business districts and experienced hitmen and the power behind it all. I mean we even have more casino's now.. who can beat that right?!
