Rules

Players in turn fire a salvo of six shots. After the complete salvo, the defender must indicate the total number of hits and name of ship(s) hit, but not which squares did the damage. First player to sink all opposing ships wins the agreed pot. However, stakes are doubled if the winner has an unhit destroyer, tripled for an unhit cruiser, quadrupled for an unhit battleship and 11 times if the entire fleet is undamaged.
