How to play
- The board contains two (2) 10x10 grids labeled "My Ships" and "My Shots".
- The first grid "My Ships" is where your ships are and where your opponent shots will appear.
- The second grid "My Shots" is where you fire your shots.
- You get to fire five (5) shots per round.
- The first round you fire five 1s, the next round you fire five 2s, etc.
- Each time you fire you will get the latest results of your oppenent's shots.
- If you just want to get the opponent's shots and not submit your shots, press "Just Refresh the Score"
- Below each grid is the score showing which shots, by number, hit which ships.
For examplle, if two of your 1s hit ships it will tell you which ships were hit by 1s.
You get to figure out which 1s hit which ship.
When you are done.
Press the "Start Over" button.
