go to the profile you desire, first 3 options are attack options: Attack-Punch-HitList. last two are defenses: Ambush-Rig Ignition to use Ambush, first off the enemy has to attack you at least once in the past 24 hours. it will cost you 2 stamina and some cash as Jades pointed out. If you are a new player, your ambush count is not limited, you can keep ambushing until you run out of cash. how ever when you move up ambush count will be reduced. 1 ambush is 1 counter attack, lets say you have set up 10 ambushes against me: my next 10 attacks will be lost and if youre lucky I will die. you get xp for every ambush you set. ambushes doesn't expire unless someone break through it. ex: my 11th attack will be normal. usually ambush cost is a problem to new friends, to get the cost down let them attack like 10 times first. cost will be much cheaper. on the other hand rig is a one time defense you can't pile up rigs against an enemy. effect of rig is that your opponent will die and you will get xp. Rig ignition is a counter attack for hit list. it will cost 5 energy and 3 stamina to set up a rig. you can access your counter attack page here, it will show you how many ambushes and rigs you have used and ho many are available to use : FB sever 1: https://apps.facebook.com/la_cosa_nostra/battle/rival/counter_attacks_traps
