Battleships

The game's rules

Well... Maybe a long explanation is not useful, you're certainly familiar with the game. Just take notice that boats can be twisted and not only linear according to the selected options. Not very good at sea certainly, but that gives more variety.

One more version of this game !

This version comes long after an older one I devised for a TRS80 (Yes, with the basic of old Bill Gates in a time when he was a programmer). I fancied that with age an practice (and the help of Borland visual C++ and wxWidgets) it would be a lot easier. Let's say that it's a lot prettier.

The acting characters

The players can be either the computer against a human challenger (you) or the computer practising against himself. The referee supervising the whole thing is the computer too, but it's another self and it's not cheating (you must take my word for that) and the referee doesn't give hints to the mechanical player.
