The Resistance

The Resistance is the "organization" of which player characters are members. At present, it is a fractured coalition, hampered significantly by ADVENT's takeover of all communications at the war's onset.

The Local Region
This midwest city was overlooked in the first wave of the invasion, and was spared much of the initial devastation, though not all. Several strikes during the onset of the war resulted in some neighborhoods destroyed, some districts damaged by airstrikes and bio-weapons. Similarly, as counterattacks were being staged by earth's forces, those looking to join the fight went elsewhere to the front lines. As the ADVENT coalition shifted their approach from invasion to occupation in response to major governments (including the US') surrender, ADVENT utilized the intact infrastructure to develop installations and a presence in the area with minimal violent pushback. Not considered a regional capitol, the area is relatively free of active conflict, and the devastation of previous invasions. In short-it's not a bad spot for a group of resistance operatives to plan their actions.

Founded by those who some combat early on, the resistance has never numbered more than a couple dozen members. Mostly comprised of those better suited to support staff, they have spies and scroungers aplenty, whereas combatants are fewer and further in between. ADVENT has done its best to try and apprehend those with combat experience in the area to suppress/preempt local resistance efforts.

The local cell has recently been dealt a blow when several of their top field operatives were ambushed and abducted during an operation.
