Battleship is a popular naval war game. Two players try to sink each other's naval fleet by correctly guessing the location coordinates of their opponent's ships.
How to Play
1. Players each have a game board with two grids, one to randomly place their ships and another to track their tries at shooting their opponents.
2. Ships can be placed anywhere on the grid, horizontally or vertically. The other player should not be able to see where the ships have been placed.
3. Players then take turns guessing the coordinates of their opponents ships. If the coordinate is not on a ship, "MISS" would be called, if a ship is in that location, "HIT" is called. Players can keep track of "hits" and "misses" with gray and red pegs.
4. The winner is the first player to sink all of their opponents ships.
