Get A Cuban Mercenary Today

Share:

Yesterday I took an unauthorized and short trip to Cuba (1).  I was able to see that the Cuban Mercenary will be needed to perform jobs and fill the spots where the Politico Corruptos used to be.

This item is giftable and can be added to your wishlist.
You probably won't get a Cuban Mercenary from your mafia members because not that many players have them yet.
You can get them from opening up Mystery Bags. This is probably a waste of a wishlist item as you will need a butt load of them. Think back to your days of collecting Politico Corruptos. If you were playing back in the day before everyone had more than they could ever use, it wasn't fun. Be prepared.
Cuban Mercenaries are also offered in the Marketplace and cost 1 Reward Point each. They better let us collect them from our properties or it's going to be rough.

  3. Going by description this is a consumable..also another fact is that consumables have atk & def both at 0 value...so this is a consumable..

  4. You can buy them too. 1 Merc = 1 RP

  5. A little research through the Mafia Wars wiki would reveal that Cuban Mercenaries have taken the place of Politico Corruptos. My money is on consumable. Cheers!

  7. @Random, thank you, I didn't realize the image was from the last tier where I must have been the last time Cuba was active for me. I was trying to get the earlier post out as fast as possible so I had assumed I was in the first tier and was thrown off by it. I don't always have time to go searching for things so if I'm not sure about something I say so and hope that someone will comment with the answer.

  8. are they opening new levels? or just re-opening it, so people who didn't get a chance to finish it before can do so now?

  9. Actually you can now collect them from your Bribery ring...

  10. I just got 31 Cuban Mercs from collecting on my Bribery Ring (level 30)

  11. You can upgrade your bribery ring to Level 30, but no higher. This will yield 31 mercs every 8 hours. Still at pain-in-the-butt levels. Are there any missions that drop this item?
