.
The new campaign included in the expansion forms a prequel to the original game’s plot and is set several years before Operation Flashpoint’s Cold War hit crisis point. Operation Flashpoint : Resistance casts the player as Victor Troska, ex-Special Forces soldier, living a peacefull civilian life on the island of Nogova, a short distance from the original game’s three islands. However, his situation changes when a Soviet force invades the island group and destroys Troska's idyllic dreams.
Reluctant at first to return to his warlike ways, he is forced to participate in, and then lead, the ramshackle Resistance effort, which grows up in response to the Soviet occupation of the island.
