Instructions & Walkthrough:
Battleships: Naval Tactics uses a classic 10x10 grid and each player commands a fleet of 5 ships: an aircraft carrier, a battleship, a frigate, a submarine and a minesweeper. Ships vary in length from 2 to 5 cells and can be placed anywhere on the game grid as long as they don't extend beyond the game grid border or overlap each other. Ships can be rotated to align either horizontally or vertically. When the Player has positioned their fleet correctly play begins.
The Player always takes the first turn and must click a 'target' cell on the Computer's game grid (the Computer's fleet remains hidden!). A shot is fired at the target cell and reports either a miss or a hit - a hit meaning the cell is occupied by a ship. If the shot is a miss the target cell turns green and play passes to the Computer who then selects a target cell on the Player's game grid. If the shot is a hit the target cell turns orange and play remains with the Player who must select another target cell. When all cells occupied by a single ship have been hit the ship will sink and the occupied cells will turn red. The first player to sink all opposition ships is the winner.
