Overview of Gameplay

Gameplay begins by the players placing their ships onto their side of the board. They must be placed horizontally or vertically, and all the ships must fit on the board.

Once all ships are placed, the game begins, with players taking turns to target a named cell on the board. The target player then announces the result of the strike, being either a 'hit' if it struck a ship, or a 'miss' if it didn't.

Once all tiles of a given ship are hit, the target player will announce 'hit and sunk'.

The first player to sink all the ships of their opponent wins.
