Battleship Rules and Gameplay.
Battleship is a 2 player turn based game played on 4 10x10 grids, 2 for each player, marking yours and your opponents battleships.
To begin play each player will arrange their ships, in any order, on one of their grids. Grids are 10x10 and list from A-J and 1-10. Both players have the same ammount and types of ships to place. In a typical game of battleship each player will have a:
- Aircraft Carrier (5 spaces long)
- Battleship (4 spaces long)
- Submarine (3 spaces long)
- Destoryer (3 spaces long)
- Patrol Boat (2 spaces long)
Once both players have set up their ships they will take turns firing shots in attempt to sink the others ships.
Turns work by one player giving a coordinate on the grid (A9, C3, J5) and attempt to hit one of the opponents ship. After a shot is taken the player will say if the shot was a "hit" or "miss" and both players will record their shots on their tracking grid, a white marker for a miss and a red marker for a hit. If the shot was a miss then the turn passes to the other player but if was a hit they can over turn. Play continues until one player wins by sinking all their opponents battleships.
