{"product_id":"battleship-28","title":"Battleship - $28","description":"\u003cp\u003eBattleship was originally a pencil-and-paper public domain game known by different names, but Milton Bradley made it into the well known board game in 1967.\u003cbr\u003eThe pencil and paper grids were changed to plastic grids with holes that could hold plastic pegs used to record the guesses.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach player deploys his ships (of lengths varying from 2 to 5 squares) secretly on a square grid.\u003cbr\u003eThen each player shoots at the other's grid by calling a location.\u003cbr\u003eThe defender responds by \"Hit!\" or \"Miss!\".\u003cbr\u003eYou try to deduce where the enemy ships are and sink them.\u003cbr\u003eFirst to do so wins.\n\u003c\/p\u003eThe Salvo variant listed in the rules allows each player to call out from 1 to 5 shots at a time depending on the amount of ships the player has left (IE: players each start off with 5 ships, so they start off with 5 shots.\u003cbr\u003eAs ships are sunk, the players gets fewer shots).\u003cbr\u003eThis version of the game is closer to the original pencil-and-paper public domain game.\u003cbr\u003eMany versions of the pencil-and-paper game have different amounts of shots based on the ship (IE: Battleship: 5 shots. Destroyer: 3 Shots, Etc.).","brand":"The Printed Meeple","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42892785975381,"sku":null,"price":25.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/9113\/0709\/files\/pic2439783.png?v=1788486061","url":"https:\/\/theprintedmeeple.com\/products\/battleship-28","provider":"The Printed Meeple","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
