The four face cards are the point cards. Pages, or Jacks, are footmen and carry a halberd, spear or club. They are worth 2 points each. Cavaliers, or Knights, wield a sword and ride a horse. They are worth 3 points. Queens, though they carry no weapon, will often win tricks for you. They are worth 4 points. Kings can be captured for an added bonus. They are worth 5 points. |
