About this expansion

The Resistance: Hostile Intent is an expansion for 5–10 players that adds three modules to The Resistance, with games lasting about 30 minutes. It intensifies the conflict between the resistance and the imperial side through new ways to identify opponents, alter missions, and uncover affiliations.

The Hunter Module makes the struggle personal. Instead of targeting only facilities during missions, both sides must identify a specific individual among the opposing team to win. New game concepts bring an added level of deduction and deceit to every confrontation.

With the Reverser Module, a Reverser can change the result of any mission. In the hands of the resistance, this ability can make a doomed mission succeed—or turn a certain victory into defeat. It introduces a potentially chaotic twist that can change the way the game is approached.

The Inquisitor Module adds an optional player ability first seen in Avalon. The player with the Inquisitor can look at another player’s affiliation, uncovering information that may reveal the truth—or at least the Inquisitor’s version of it.

  • Hunter Module: Identify a specific opposing individual to win.
  • Reverser Module: Change the result of any mission.
  • Inquisitor Module: Look at another player’s affiliation.

Hostile Intent includes 34 new cards measuring 89 × 64 mm and two character tokens. Use its modules to add fresh twists and turns to The Resistance and reshape the balance between deduction, uncertainty, and deception.
