About The MOB
Boss: Also called Don, he is the man with all of the power in the Family. He gives the orders, and the rest of the Family is expected to follow them without question.
Underboss (Sotto Capo): He is the second-in-command. He is usually the word on the street, so to speak. He controls the day-to-day operations of the family.
Consigliere: The consigliere acts as a "couselor" or "advisor" to the boss. He is directly under the boss in terms of the hierarchy, but he doesn't normally give orders.
Capo: Short for capodecina or caporegime, he is a leader of a "crew" or decina (literally, "group of ten") of ten to fifteen soldiers.
Soldier: These are the guys that do the dirty work. They are still "made" guys. Also each soldier may have a few associates hanging out with him.
Associates: These guys do the real dirty work. Associates are not "made" guys, they just hand around with the crew. They often are willing to do anything to get "made", and therefore handle alot of hits.
