Maquis Board Game | Full Solo Playthrough | How to Play This Solitaire Worker Placement Board Game 

About as clear & concise as one could make a playthrough of this game while at the same time keeping it interesting. Great job!

Wonderful playthrough. I really enjoy the way you both teach and show off the game without being tedious! Well done!

I bought Maquis after watching your play through but am just now getting it to the table. So I watch it again and played with you using the same missions, Patrol cards and your placements! It really helped me learn the game 😁! Then I played the same missions on my own two more times. Such a fun quick worker placement game! Thanks for the awesome play through and teaching me the game! You have have helped me learn many solos!

I've gone back and forth on this one over the years, but after watching your playthrough have just ordered it! I really like your tone, clear audio, and pacing. Happy to have discovered your channel!

Just got a copy today, and thanks to you I was able to jump right in. Great vid.

Hey, great as always! Right now I'm playing again, after month on the shelf. But one thing. At 15:05 I think there is a little mistake. Because you can grab the blue information token at Radio B directly! Because the slash gives you the choice to get it or to take the airdrop action. And only in this case, you have to wait until the next round to get the token you choose from the field. !

Excellent playthrough. I just purchased this game and found your playthrough. Very helpful for new players. I like how you present your games in all of your playthroughs. Very easy to follow and to learn from without having to sit through lengthy rules teaches. I feel like I can just jump in and play!

Great playthrough, perfect camera and very informative. Thank you.

It was very nice to watch... love the combination of teaching the rules while playing and also combined with explaining the choices you made. Very well done indeed!

love love love this game. So simple!

I printed this out years ago when it was free PnP and man, I did this game up! I enjoyed it so much! I cut out the player/AI figures and put tmade them into standees, the board was mounted on a piece of Attack! game board, and I cut/folded a box to fit it all in. So it really felt like the retail, out of the box experience that I wanted. So happy to see it's finally happening. Loads of fun and so happy to see it finally hit the retail shelves. Some games have problems with this transition, such as Deep Space D6, PnP was great but the "retail (Kisckstarter) fell flat. Watching this vid, I have to say that Marquis' transition was a complete success as it seems to have kept all of it's qualities that made the game great. Also, great vid. But do I really need to say this every time!? ... Sure, why not, you deserve it!

Wow great review and playthrough!

Absolutely incredible tutorial video.thanks.

Great playthrough, thanks!

Shaggie, I have looked everywhere for this game ( along with Black Sonata and S.O.S Titanic) and ended up with tears ! I have been trying so hard to find what I so much wanted but honestly some shops in the UK have not even heard of these games. Maquis looks even better 😤😤😤 Anyway, so happy that you are showing it. AaKR. Well, I can dream on.

Great video! Thank you for sharing.

Fantastic playthrough. Love the nod to the Dark Lady from Black Sonata.

MAQUIS! Fantastic job! Still lovin' your playthroughs!

excellent and clear playthrough

Great video and much appreciated!

I bought this game on your recommendation (and the appeal of your playthrough). Really loving it. As someone who has little opportunity to play anything but solo games, it's great to have a solo-only title that isn't a pure card game (yay! an actual board!) and some neat thematic missions to keep it varied and interesting. Would love more right around this play weight and physical size.

Great playthrough! Just printed this out, and this video helped clearing up some questions I had about the rules.

Awesome explanation and play through

As usual, great gameplay and excellent commentary.

great playthrough. realy understand the game. finally got some video with other mission for maquis. great game. thank you very much.

Haven't played for ages and your video was a great refresher. Good pace, clear reasoning and camera work. I would say that I track the patrol cards that have been used using the table in the rule book. It's because the underground network soy on the patrols and know their routines... Anyway, it adds to the strategy. Thanks. 👍

Seems like a nice game, again very informative to hear you explain it so clearly. I think I want to try it. 😊

Thank you for this vid. It's very helpful. I'm excited to get into the game!

I loved this play through: so clear and informative. I’ve wanted Maquis for ages but couldn’t get hold of a copy. I found one on eBay over the weekend and I’m so excited for it to arrive! I love a good solo-only game, and this one seems really thematic.

Well done

I don't own this game, but after this playthrough I think I want to! Great explanation, and it looks like a really good quick solo game for these dark winter nights

Never thought you could play board games solo until a couple of days ago, so off I went in search of what games to start off from when I found your channel. I saw this video, bought this game and it arrived today. Thank you for showing how to play with a playthrough, it really helped me learned how to play. You are clear and precise not only with your words but in how you show off the game. Well done, sir! And thank you for this video and also your top 10 videos for beginners. You just got a new sub, can’t wait to see what new games awaits us in 2024!

It's my favorite single-player game. I'm so glad you played this!! 🤩

Just purchased this game after seeing it on the top 10 list you did. I'm surprised you haven't encased the food...tokens yet! 😉 Thanks for the solo suggestions!

Thanks for the play-through! I sought it out because I was unclear about whether resources stay with individual workers or go into a general inventory. From your video and comments it seems like the resources just go into a general inventory, so one worker could collect a weapon at a field and the weapon could immediately be used by a worker elsewhere. The exception to this seems to be the fake ID papers, which are deployed with a worker. Have I got that right?! It makes the game easier but I must say the theme would be stronger if resources were collected and carried with individual workers, eg a worker must deliver a gun to a safe house before it can be used by another worker, and only then if they have it on them.

I love this game! Quick question, when you get intel at the radios, why do you put it in the field? I thought you got it directly because it's not a part of the airdrop. It makes sense thematically because you would be hearing the intel for yourself through the radio communications, unlike the airdrop, where they are just letting you know when it will arrive.

I honestly do not know how you achieve it but you are able to make any game more interesting... I played this game a while back and was not impressed. I mean it is a nice game but after this playthrough I just gotta go back to it... it seems so much better with your playthrough XD

Was this the 2nd Edition of the game? Great play through; after your video I just ordered the game!

Good job !!! Really impressed ! However I wonder whether you can "jump over" a patrol as you did at 31:52 ? 🤔🤔

I thought that in order to spend money from an airdrop that you needed to bring it back first? And I didn't think you could spend during the same turn? This is in reference to your day 2. If I'm wrong, forgive me.

Hey Shaggi, finally got my own copy of Maquis! Question. Do you have to discard a weapon when you use it to shoot a Milice? Or is it like a fake ID - you can use it once per turn?

get yourself the maquisards expansion.

Can you go to the Mission/Newspaper, above Pont du Nord, when there’s a milice on Pont du Nord? Doesn’t it block you going there?
