Raid a weapons shipment. The resistance has already done the heavy lifting in diverting most of the guards away, the PCs need to go clean up what's left and make off with the guns.

Alternatively:

Get a message across. Depending on the state of technology in the setting and the amount of secrecy involved there might be a need for runners to contact other resistance groups or a friendly invading army behind enemy lines, getting a report one way and orders the other. They're not crossing an active battlefield, but there are still patrols.

The resistance has managed to save the crew of a downed allied bomber. (On second thought, that could be a mission in and of itself.) But they need a doctor to treat them and some medical supplies. Doctors in general are nice, life saving people, but you still need to know you're not contacting one with strong nazi sympathies.

The resistance is moving fugitives. The operation in this city is starting to draw their attention, but if we get this group over the former border to Belgium and split up heading for three different cities they could still hide under the enemies noses for a good amount of time. We know where the roadblocks usually are, this leaves us an option where a several miles wide patch of forest needs to be crossed on foot. The enemy cannot get wind of the large group of refugees.

The mayor is being way too friendly with these nazi's. It's demoralizing the people, and soon there will not be a resistance left. Take him out.

Our radio man has intercepted a transmission of the local nazi police chapter, they've tracked down one of our safehouses and are raiding it tonight. This gives us a unique opportunity, but just five hours to prepare while the house is being watched.

An enemy bomber has been downed. The nearest nazi base is three times as far from that site as we are. Go there, see if they were carrying any useful information or equipment. Deal with any resistance.

We need more food. The guy running the local cheese factory is a good lad, but we now need his inventory more than he does.



I think I like this setting idea, it allows for a really low level feel. You're outnumbered and outgunned everywhere you look, fair fights are out of the question, but you still need to get stuff done.
