About this game
This naval game is an early Dutch version of Battleships. The board is a brownish grey, and the cardboard ships are outlined in black with an overhead view. The game also comes with markers to show hits and misses. This copy has a retail tag from Het Ijzerhuis, a hardware company founded in 1907 and still in business.

Rules
Each player gets a 10 x 10 blank board and a fleet of one cruiser, two torpedo boats, two minelayers and four submarines. After choosing hidden locations for each of their own ships, players take turns calling out grid squares and marking them either with misses or hits by type. The first player to sink the other's entire fleet wins.
