RULES:
The object of this 2 player card game is to sink all 5 of your opponent’s ships. Separate the cards in two colored decks and give 1 deck to each player. Each player separates out their reference card, 12 coordinate cards, and 26 battle cards, then shuffles their coordinate cards and lays them face-down in a 3x4 grid in front of them. Shuffle your own battle cards and deal 5 of them to yourself then place them in a face-down deck in front of you. Pick a player to go first, then turns alternate.
On your turn you must play 1 card from your hand. There are 2 types of cards you can play: Peg cards, and power cards. White pegs allow you to search for your opponent’s face down ships, tap one, and they flip it over. Then you discard the white peg card to your discard pile. Red pegs allow you to damage ships. Ships have a number on them that indicates how many hits they need in order to be sunk. Place the red peg card under the affected ship and that ship receives the number on the red pegs as hits. You can put multiple red pegs under a single ship. As soon as a ship has hits equal to or greater than the ship’s number, then that ship is sunk. Remove the sunk ship from the game and place all red peg cards under it in the discard pile.
You are allowed to play a red peg card on a face down card, however, if you do and the flipped card is a miss, then discard that card. If it is a ship, then the red pegs are immediate hits.
Shield Power cards play on top of your ships and the shield must be destroyed before the ship can take more damage. When a shield is destroyed, discard it. Other types of power cards allow you to pick between two options on the card. This symbol means you can discard as many white peg cards from your hand as you want. This symbol means you can more cards in the same turn as indicated by the number. The repair symbol means you can remove any 1 peg card from a ship. You may not repair shields. This symbol means to draw cards from the top of your deck as indicated by the number. If you have 2 symbols next to each other you get to perform both actions, but you may not perform actions that are separated by the “OR”.
After you play a card you end your turn by drawing back up to 5 cards. Then your opponent goes.
Each ship has a special power that you can use once that ship is revealed. The submarine can only be damaged by white peg cards instead of red ones. The PT BOAT allows you to remove 1 peg card from any of your damaged ships at the start of each of your turns. The destroyer allows your white pegs to damage ships. The battleship adds 1 red peg to each of your red peg cards in play. So a 2 peg card would now count as a 3 peg card. The aircraft carrier allows you to draw to 7 cards at the end of your turn instead of 5.
The first player to sink all 5 of their opponent’s ships, wins!

To anyone who says first: You admitted to being the youngest player, now turns alternate
Best way to get them to stop yelling "FIRST!"
@@t3rraria836 huh
smort
@@t3rraria836 flip a coin
..we just flip a coin or roll a 1d6 odds-or-evens..
I actually played regular battleship this way! Or something similar. We would designate which ship is firing and that would give special abilities to the shot. Battleships did 2 damage for every volley, only destroyers could sink subs, but subs couldn't attack carriers. It was so much more interesting than regular Battleship!
So if you lose your destroyer and the other player still has their sub, is that just an instant loss?
@@TheQuark6789 no remember subs don't sink carriers. If you lose the carrier and destroyer and they have a sub, you lose then, although you were probably on track to lose anyway. But if you have the carrier and they just a sub you reach the stalemate condition and you win by virtue of having the largest piece still active. There was a bunch of special conditions that we came up with in special rules and stuff. Also I forgot to mention a sub attacking a destroyer is suicide for the sub, since in direct engagement if attacked by the sub, the destroyer does excess damage.
Wow, this is a fun take on the concept. Will definitely buy it when I see it.
Why is this sound lowkey more fun then actual battleship
cause actual battleships sucks
IMO everytime i hear the game battleship i wanna play it but I immediately think about like how dumb the mechanic or the lack thereof, all you do is just guess randomly you can strategize but all in all you do the same thing all over again. But here it adds randomness and ACTUAL MECHANICS though randomness might be bad but it keeps the game interesting
It is and it's very fun
0:36 Alternatively, the youngest player goes first, then turns alternate.
or, the person who has sunk the most ships in real life goest first, then turns alternate
Thanks to this channel, I am able to learn and discover new game.
As a huge fan of yu gi oh trading card game, I find this very interesting
Wow thank you so much on making this explaining video. Tried to read the paper instructions and failed dismally. This makes it soooo much easier:)
Another name for this game is "Battleship: Hidden Threat"
The instructions of the card game are confusing but this video had helped
After seeing this video I understood this is an amazing strategy game rather than the battleship game. Ordered one from the store 👌
Was waiting for this one!!
played it, loved it. highly recommend
wow this game actually looks like it would be pretty fun, a faster method of playing original battle ship. going to look into getting a copy.
This almost seem better than the original, they removed a lot of the guessing part, however there is less strategy involved in placing ships now.
Yes, but, now the strategy shifts to resource management. Finite resources, finite powers. I suppose some adjustments could be made, such as being able to rehide a ship if it gets fully repaired and/or Shielded (sacrificing the Shield) before being damaged, by picking 2-3 other random cards and shuffling between them. I could see other adjustments, too.
Hey triple S, I have a request for a game I would like you to review. It’s called throw throw avocado
Oh I can tell this will take up a lot of table space, lol
Thank you, i was struggling with learning this game
Only one clarification to mr video maker. The one power that allows you to discard white pegs. Does not allow you to discard more than two. It is between 1 and 2. You discarded 3. But overall great video.
Few doubts? 1) Does the action card always remain face up and never goes to discard pile … except for shields ?? 2) Can we play 2 shields on one ship? 3) does The action card that let us play 2 cards , allow us to play 2 cards after we have used that action card or is that action card is considered as one play and it allows one more to be played this turn ?
1. By my logic goes into discard pile after the effect is done
2. By my logic too. You can't put a shield on top of another shield as they are meant to be used on ships and one shield would already be on the ship.
3. By my logic. Yes, if you use draw 3 and use the one who gives you use 2 then you should be able to. It works like a combo that you can randomly pull off.
@@extremetwisterplays1850 thanks for concluding it
@@extremetwisterplays1850 hi bro , I have one more Q , i came across this scenario, there was a 4x red peg under my opponent’s aircraft carrier and it had a shield on it, then my destroyer ( which has power that increase value of red hits by 1) was flipped up for me. Now does his carrier gets destroyed by ship effect ( as my 4 hit peg is now 5) or does it not because of shield , as the shield says that no further damage can be done to ship until the shield is removed ? This one is the hardest scenario i came across
@@paritoshsharma6092 All in play red pegs increase by 1 so if the ship had a red pegs on it when the power comes to play it becomes 5 successfully sunking it because the power is applied to the peg on the ship. Since in your scenario you are not damaging the shield but the ship. The ship goes down and the shield should still be discarded
@@extremetwisterplays1850 but the thing here is that shield says that no further damage can be done to ship unless u get rid of ship and the power now basically add one hit to ship so technically it should be a 5 hit but that should come in play after you remove shield, and as soon as you remove shield the ship sinks ,
Can you play multiple power cards in a row?(Eg.: Playing power card "Draw 3" and 1 of the 3 cards that are picked up is another power card the "Play 2 cards", can you play the second power card and play 2 extra turns?)
Cool!
Alternatively, place the ships where you want, because otherwise there's almost no strategy
2:09 why would you need to discard them if you can use them instead?
Looks kinda cool
More detail
I'm learning to play this 😂
Does the ship reveal count when it’s a direct hit? Or does it have to be when opponent use white pig
Yes, it counts as both reveal and damage. But you have to use white pegs if you have white pegs to reveal. Reds are only used if you don't have white pegs in hand.
where can you buy it?
The links are in the description.
I was wondering what was the point of white pegs at first.
I have one more Q , i came across this scenario, there was a 4x red peg under my opponent’s aircraft carrier and it had a shield on it, then my destroyer ( which has power that increase value of red hits by 1) was flipped up for me. Now does his carrier gets destroyed by ship effect ( as my 4 hit peg is now 5) or does it not because of shield , as the shield says that no further damage can be done to ship until the shield is removed ? This one is the hardest scenario i came across
Thank you 💕💕💕

It seems very fun, but why would you ever search out the enemy players other ships when that will just buff them? Once you've found one theres no reason not to focus fire it even through shields and repairs or you'll give them like 7 cards a turn, lethal white pegs, self repairs on other ships, etc.
Well if you only have white pegs then you'll have to search
@@TheCat_3 Fair point actually.
Yeah, good point.
I would also could create special rules. Like the ships revealed give the revealing player powers. But you can only use white pegs to reveal.
You might be looking for a submarine
Can you stack shields?
Shield are to be used on top of ships only. If a ship already has a shield on top then you would be putting a shield on top of a shield. So, by my logic they do not stack.
Can you explain Scotland yard
Oh i like this game
Is it hardest card game than UNO😢
My brain when arrogant treasure king:
Bless you ha
Actually seems easy
WOW
✅ Good
"This video is sponsored by world of warships"
This game is quite confusing.
Aqdas: we love you new baby
idk but this feels like not battleships and battleships at the same time (watched a 6 second ad 😎)
it's like battleships but it's funny
Sheesh, it seems way more boring than the whole board game. But I guess people can enjoy it.
This one has a bit more strategy to it, with timings on how you use your cards and stuff. Meanwhile, the original board game is basically pure luck.
Congrats...Another classic game RUINED ...
What, are you no longer allowed to play the original?
@@kirtil5177 no, but he needs to find new friends that won't play this trash game
First
I came here when the video was rsleased 9 seconds ago
no you last
Nooooooo
You admitted to being the youngest, now turns alternate
