Description
Game Description:
Designed by Mark H. Walker, La Resistance is a simple, yet engaging, dice and card game set during the German occupation of France in World War II. During the occupation, brave French men and women fought against the Nazi conquerors, disrupting their communications, destroying supply warehouses, and ambushing German patrols. La Resistance gives players a chance to lead a band of resistance fighters, working to keep their men and women alive as they also strive to become the most famous resistance leader.

On each turn, a player will roll six dice, placing the dice on mission cards common to all players, he or she attempts to defeat the mission card by matching dice on the card, spending recruits, and using their resistance leader’s special abilities. To win, a player must amass 12 Glory Points or break--by stealing or otherwise removing all rival resistance group members—the other resistance bands. La Resistance mixes elements of popular dice games, such as Yahtzee and King of Tokyo, with “take that” card mechanics and player interaction, giving the game a familiar feel.

The game is historically themed, and a great way to introduce gamers to strategy games. Three to five people may play, so La Resistance is great for game nights and family get-togethers. Coming to Kickstarter this December, and shipping worldwide in April, La Resistance is a great strategy game for wargamers and casual strategy gamers alike.

This mod includes:
7 Resistance leader cards to track glory points and band members;
35 Mission Cards, such as Tiger Tank, Foreign Aid or Communications Hub that provide enemies to be neutralized, reinforcements for your troops or a facility to be sabotaged;
9 C'est la Guerre Cards, such as Faulty Intel (steal an opponent's die) or Charismatic (steal a rival's resistance fighter) to upgrade your leader and/or sabotage rival leaders;
9 Event Cards, such as Heavy Casualties, that alter the basic rules for the turn;
Thick game chits to track glory points, ammo, recruits, and other special skills;
A colorful and easy to read rules booklet; and
Some French WW II era tunes.

That's an excellent point I never considered Ice. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll change that immediately.

Finding this title was a bit rough because Steam is character-sensitive in its searches and "é" does not get picked up by searches containing "e" instead. It may be worth misspelling this as "La Resistance" at least once somewhere in the description so that non-Euro keyboards can search this title without having to grab the special characters map.

That said, thank you for the work creating and uploading this.
