A strategic island had to be urgently cleaned up of ugly green links. A very dedicated Danish agent took on the task and jumped on a plane on very short notice, taking back control of the island and saving the surrounding sea areas from Shapers influence. A scary meeting with a local creature was also overcome and the creature was persuaded to guard the island. Available travel options required an overnight stay on the island.

Pyxicephalus adspersus, or the African Bullfrog, is sitting alone in his cage at Schönbrunn Zoo in Vienna – the oldest still active zoo of the world. The Viennese Resistance is sitting alone in NR01-FOXTROT-06 being undefeated for more than 75 cycles now. Since their green counterparts are not really willing to change this situation local agents had the great idea of supporting Pyxicephalus adspersus by being it’s godfather. Now both are not that lonely anymore because they can visit each…
Dutch and English agents visited a WWII fort located in the Thames estuary to reclaim the portal for the Resistance after it was captured by 10 ENL the day before. This portal holds strategic value for both the Netherlands and the UK. IRFN patch winner: ConPow (Platinum), DenebAlgedi (Platinum). Current Status: Fully funded, thank you!

For the #DarkXMCure link between Malmö and Stockholm, Danish resistance where asked to help and 4 teams were scrambled for clearing. The teams helped Swedish Resistance to clear the surroundings and defend the link portal. For this, they had to cross the bridge between Denmark and Sweden (expensive bridge!) and are asking for some help funding the tickets. IRFN patch winner: HalrunH (Gold).

A couple of weeks into the #DarkXMCure challenge, agents in Ireland and Scotland got the ping from @Azhreia they’d been [hoping for/dreading] — it’s time to make a link, and it has to go from Glasgow city centre, to Kanturk. All together now: where on earth is Kanturk??? Having found it, the rest of the planning began in earnest: keys would have to move between countries, blockers from islands needed to drop, and they were going to need people up…
On 7 April 2018, Resistance Switzerland, Austria and France had to connect Geneva and Innsbruck for #DarkXMCure challenge. Really? A link of more than 400km across the Alps, in April? The avalanche danger was particularly high! So the question was: How to throw this link without endangering an agent!? More than once they were on the verge of canceling the action. But finally a solution was found. Resistance Air Force with their pilot @r2k and the two passengers @Chicken3gg and…
On 31 March 2018, Resistance Malaysia was involved in a #DarkXM Link Ops connecting Malaysia and Thailand. In order to succeed, agent @tyyuuiy had to fly to Phuket Island to deliver keys as well as lead the local players there. No time for sightseeing – he was there for only 26 hours and only saw the sea from the plane 🙁 Back in Malaysia, agents had to drive a combined total of 1000KM (622 miles) in order for the ops…
After the successful OP108 to the Isles of Scilly in May 2017, it was time to go again to de-green it and kill the links to Wales and Ireland. Agents @BillthePig and @HardwoodDez flew to St Mary’s where they separated, one taking a ferry to St Martin’s and the other to St Agnes. No time for sightseeing, they had to hurry to kill all the portals and get back on time for the afternoon flight back. Please help these RES…
