Resistance: Spy Edition

The Resistance pits a small group of resistance fighters against a powerful and corrupt government. The resistance has launched a series of bold and daring missions to bring the government to its knees. Unfortunately spies have infiltrated the resistance ranks, ready to sabotage the carefully crafted plans. Even a single spy can take down a resistance mission team, choose your teams carefully or forever lose your chance for freedom. The Resistance artfully balances pure deduction elements with the social elements into a game that creates the adrenaline filled moments of high stakes poker in a full interactive and social event.

In our game the mission of the spies is to pass enough missions to save the world. However, members of the resistance are purposefully trying to thwart their efforts. There are a total of 8 missions for our spies to engage with and the resistance needs to fail 5 of them to win, passing at least 4 missions means that the spies win. However, every spy in the game has special powers that allow them to garner more information. For every mission there is a leader who chooses a team of spies to bring with them. Each spy on the mission has the ability to play a succeed or fail card. Based on the format of the mission different numbers of cards are needed to determine the outcome.

I have gathered you all here to save the world. There are 8 missions in order to do and the team leaders of each mission have been preselected.
Please follow me to this large table, take a seat, and introduce yourselves.
