  • Espionage: Use you Intelligence Agency to train spies to specialize in certain types of information warfare and develop passive resistance to enemy espionage, then send them on special operations.
  • Support Resistance: Use your agents to assist allied resistance movements, giving them what they need to damage the enemy.
  • Collaboration Governments: Use your agents to prepare the ground for collaborators to fill the void once you’ve conquered your target.
  • Code Cracking: Decrypt enemy communications to gain short term battlefield advantages.
  • Recon units: Scout planes can provide useful information on nearby areas while armored cars help in detecting and suppressing resistance activities.

    Don't "resist" to one of the best expansion for HoI4!*****

    HoI4's expansions follow a good design to make evolve a game as, though not compulsory to enjoy the base game, most of them improve it significantly, both in more content and deeper features. "La Résistance" is not an exception.

    In content, I think "La Résistance" is the best addition to the series. Spanish and French new national focus trees are really good (lot of options), and the Spanish Civil War has become sort of a new game itself.

    About features, the star in "La Résistance" is spionage, and this DLC really delivers. Intelligence is now a factor to take account in your military planning, and your agents and operations in enemy territory give new flavour to the game.

    This is my current evaluation:

    1. Waking the Tiger
    2. La Résistance
    3. Man the Guns
    4. Death or Dishonor
    5. Battle for the Bosporus
    6. Together for Victory

    Cool features, that can be overlooked for the most part*****

    It adds a lot of extra stuff to do, but most of it is either insignificant to the main goal of your campaign, or a complete hassle to manage.

    Nice addition, but not must have*****

    Adds espionage and secret agents. It's a fun layer of complexity, but you can definitely enjoy the base game without the micromanagement of spies.
