Marquis

 

In the estate von the Marquis players vie for valuable coins to exchange them for jewels, to achieve this players assume different characters. Each player has a deck in one colour, 4 coins per player are in the public coffer. In his turn a player chooses and displays a character, then enacts the card actions: take coins from the coffer, take coins from other players, hand over coins, exchange coins and maybe use abilities of a character, exchange is the last action. If a player has 5 diamonds, they are exchanged for 1 ruby. At the end diamonds and rubies are scored, in case of a tie the coins decide.
