ES5596U - A game of entertainment and recreation (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding) - Google Patents

Abstract

A game of entertainment and recreation, which simulates a naval combat, and is composed of two equal boards or cards, two fleets or sets of chips of different colors or badges and a prudential amount of small, two-colored chips, to control the plays . The board or cardboard contains two tables, divided into 144 squares or squares, to 12 per side. Lines and columns are referenced by letters and by numbers. The fleet consists of ten units: a battleship, which displaces or occupies four squares; two cruisers with three squares, three destroyers with two squares, and four submarines with one square. It is played as follows: Each player, unbeknownst to the opponent, arms his fleet, on a whim, in one of the squares of his board, with only one condition that between ship and ship leaves at least one space. Each move consists in making three simultaneous shots, that is, to name three squares (A 7-C 10-F 3), which you control with chips in the free square of your board. The opposing player will indicate if any of his boats have been reached, without saying which, but when he is sunk, that is when all the squares he has moved have been reached, he is obliged to say so, so that reference is made with chips of another color on the opponent's board. The player who sinks the opposing fleet wins the game. The check that the game is well won is done by confronting the boards. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)
