A crew rank tree that can be viewed by Crew Members only or to other families as well. Made Man and above only :)

It would display the Rank and Name of members.

:)

I'd be happy to see this implemented. The crewleaders could even assign their members via this screen... they have something similar on mafiamatrix and it is very aesthetically pleasing.

Could it not be drawn from the profile pictures (scaled down) of the members in the relevant positions?

I envisaged like the family tree template and the CL can drop and drag the relevant people into the appropriate positions.

I designed my own once for one of my families, partly because I think it looks great and gives people a visual idea of the structure and partly because I'm sad.

I like this idea still, sounds like a good addition to me.

Yes, thats a better suggestion than mine :)

Well I tend to use a crew structure like the below posted within the HQ for all the family to see. This sort of thing should only be visible by the family and not other families.

Godfather - if there is one

Don - CL

Sotto Capo - RHM

Capo Bastone - LHM

Capo Di Imponitore - HSL

Capodecima - sponsors (I only give sponsorship to capo+)

Contabile - finance adviser.

Sgarrista - everyone not in the structure thats made+

Piciotto - everyone else.

This suggestion wouldn't impact on your chosen structure.

Don = Boss

Sotto Capo = RHM/Underboss

Capo Bastone = LHM/Consigliere

Don't put the HSL or finance adviser in.

Capos are Capos, Sgarrista are Made Men/Soliders and everyone else are associates.

I like this idea, though I think it would need to be quite specific and detailed.

Maybe something like:

Godfather

Godfather RHM

Underboss

Godfather LHM

City HSL

Family Leader             Family Leader            Family Leader

   Family RHM                Family RHM                Family RHM   

Family LHM                Family LHM                Family LHM

Family HSL                Family HSL                Family HSL

This would only be viewable to the crew members of that city (As you can probably guess, this would be a city structure rather than an individual family one.)

Maybe something seperate for the entire userbase to see, maybe the same as above, but without the HSL info.

(Sorry if the formatting fails, I can see it happening already!)

I also very much like the idea of dragging and dropping the relevant profile pictures into these positions, with then a name being displayed below them, and their rank within the city. Very good addition.

Like the cops do in the Sopranos. Very cool.

We can already see which and how many families we have per city on the 'local crew' page, maybe the idea of a city and family structure/ tree can be a new set up? It depends on your vision how many 'filled or blank' positions you can see...

If somsone ranked under mademan is your RH/LH, wouldn't that create a conflict of them being an associate and not Underboss / Consigliere? 

Nobody ranked under Made Man should really hold any position in an organization anyway.

{Something for a rainy afternoon (or ten?)}

I agree with PC-Grin

They should restrict assigning RHM/LHM on Made Man above only.

well there isn't really a RHM or a LHM on the Mafia anyway. Check out the rank tree again.

There isn't but this gives more freedom to roleplay. If they renamed the positions "Underboss" and "Consigliere" then you'd be forced to play as Italian mafia. This way you can roleplay any kind of criminal organization.
