063. "Resist!" - a board game about fighting Franco - - David Thompson

I'm joined by game designer David Thompson to discuss his game Resist!, a solitaire card game about the Spanish Maquis's battle against Franco in the 1940s. David and I discuss the game design process, the little known history of the Spanish Maquis, and the way that the board game industry runs on mutual aid

Here are links to David's description of designing the game and an account of the Spanish Maquis
