Mafia Wars' GIRLS WITH GUNS

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child,
But she's always a woman to me

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her, as long as it's free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me

Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--

CHORUS:
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--

She's Always A Woman Lyrics :Billy Joel

Zynga Will Make This Family Battle Module Ridiculously Less Interesting For The Smaller, Weaker Family's. Just Check Out What's Next For The Family Battles;

Coming Soon

Battle Leaderboards: Challenge the top families and climb the rankings!

Battle seasons: Earn top rewards for climbing the leaderboard every season!

Isn't That What We All Want Is To Challenge The Top Family's To Battles And Have Our Asses Handed To Us Just Like We Do On The Fight Pages? Bottom-Line Is NOT INTERESTED!!! Just Another Load Of Crap That You Will NEVER Be Able To Compete With The 'Top" Family's In. 

How To Fight A Family Battle

Are A Soldier In Your Family You Have To Wait For A Godfather, Godmother, Or Under Boss To Ask Another Family To Start A Battle With. Your Godfather, Godmother, Or Under Boss Can Choose Whether To Ask For A 4 Hour Or A 48 Hour Battle.  

Once A Godfather, Godmother, Or Under Boss Of The Opposing Family Accepts The Proposed Battle All Family Members Will  Be Able To Join The Battle. A Banner Like The One Below Will Appear Where You Can Click "Go Now" To Join The Battle Or On Your Mission Bar It Will Be Indicated That Your Family Is In An Active Battle.  

If You Click On Your Mission Bar's Family Progression Icon You Can The Click On "Go To Battle" To Join The Battle With Your Family. 

If The Battle Hasn't Started Yet There Will Be A Countdown Timer Indicating How Much Time There Is Remaining Before The Battle Begins. 

You Will Not Be Able To Pursue Any Battle Actions Until After The Clock Hits Zero And A New Clock Begins For Either The 4 Hour Battle Or The 48 Hour Battle.  

As Shown In The 2 Pictures Below, If There Are Active Targets For Your Family To Fight You Cannot Attack The Opposing Family's Safe House. You Can Attack Any Player Where The Red Attack Button Appears.  

If There Are No Live Targets On The Fight List Then A Red Attack Button Appears Where You Can Attack The Opposing Family's Safe House. 

You May Have To Click The Green Refresh Button Constantly If You Want To Find Live Targets To Fight. 

If You Want To Know How Well Your Family Is Doing Then You Can Check Your Score On This Banner. In A Way, If You're Lucky The Opposing Family Won't Fight Back (As Indicated In The Picture Below). But That Takes The Fun Out Of The Family Battle.  

Individual Players Acquire A Score As Well. This Can Be Found By Looking On The Leaderboard Of The Battle Looking Below Individual's Names. I Am Not Certain As To The importance Of This Score Yet. Other Than It Indicates How Many Of Those On The Opposing Family That Have Been Iced Or Killed By Said Player. 

When The Clock Runs Out Your Battle Has Ended. A Box Will Appear That Looks Like This One (Below). 

You Can Brag About Your Hard Fought, Or Boring, Battle. 

You Now Have Some Mastery In Family Battles. This Now Appears On Your Family Page Under The Battle Area.
