How to use

Each player places their fleet on a concealed grid according to the rule sheet, keeping ship locations secret. Players take turns calling out grid coordinates; the opponent announces a hit or a miss and marks results on their own tracking grid. When all cells of a ship have been hit, the ship is declared sunk. Play continues until one player’s entire fleet is sunk. The rule sheet explains ship sizes, placement restrictions and scoring conventions to ensure consistent play.

Usage recommendations

For best results, play on a flat surface with both players aligned to the grids so coordinates are read consistently. Keep hit and miss markers separated by type to avoid confusion, and agree on any house rules before play begins to streamline turns. The game is optimal for short sessions and can be combined into a best-of series for extended play.
