Cuba in Crisis Mission Even 411 and FAQ
Updated 02/24/2011 07:20 PM
Cuba in Crisis - Mission Event
Seasons change, and in March, Mafia Wars will change in an unprecedented way.
Q: Cuba is closing, why?
A: We have some major things coming up in March, and part of the storyline involves the closing down of Cuba.  'A major disruption is about to happen. A powerful, new criminal organization is wreaking havoc on the current world order. This has caused an uprising in Cuba where all Mafia bosses will be deported. It will soon be revealed where and why this new criminal organization, the Neo-Imperium, is disrupting Cuba.'
Q: What do you mean closing?
A: Cuba will no longer be accessible. It will be grayed out on the travel menu and any attempts to get to Cuba will be stopped with a popup.  You will not be able to vault or revault Cuba collections.  You will not be able to collect from Cuba properties or access the Cuba bank.  You will not be able to complete Cuba achievements.  You will not be able to fight or rob in Cuba.

Q: When will this happen?
A: Cuba will be closing on March 1st.

Q: Is this permanent?
A: Cuba will be closed for the foreseeable future.

Q: What if I have finished Cuba already?
A: In order to complete Cuba in Crisis mission, you will need to loot Prop 4's. This will only drop in jobs and fights (but not robs) in Cuba. Completing the mission will award you with the Special Mastery Item, an Embargo Net that will result in an additional 10% cash in .

Q: What if I haven't finished Cuba already?
A: In addition to the Prop 4's, you will receive 5x Mastery on unmastered jobs. You might also want to ask for Politico Corruptos from your friends.  Mastered jobs reward you with a skill point.
In addition, there are Mastery Items for mastering each tier (El Rey Roadster, Guerilla Commando, Avispa Machine Gun, Che's Beret, Cocodrilo, and Cazador Assault Rifle)  If you haven't vaulted the Cuba collections, each of them offer a permanent addition to your skill.
*Rum Drinks Collection initial vault = + 8 Energy
*Tropical Fruits Collection initial vault = +3 Stamina
*Entertainers Collection initial vault = +10 Health
*Tropical Fish Collection initial vault = +5 Attack
*Beards Collection initial vault = +7 Defense
There are also Cuba achievements that offer a skill point for completion.

Q: What if I don't finish Cuba in time?
A: Your Cuba progress will be frozen.

Q: I like fighting in Cuba!
A:  The Cuba version of fighting will also be closed for the foreseeable future.

Customer Support is not authorized to offer any compensation do not complete Cuba before it closes.  If you have any feedback or opinions about this event, please visit - http://getsatisfaction.com/mafia_wars/
