Dare to defeat the enemy fleet in the classic game of strategic combat with Hasbro Battleship. Command a fleet of five ships, placing them strategically on your game tray and keeping them hidden from your opponent. Plan strategic missile assaults aimed at your opponent's ships, and use the red and white pegs to track your shots as they strike or miss. You'll have to race to track down your opponent's ships before his or her counterattacks sink your fleet. The game includes two plastic fold-and-store game trays, 10 plastic ships, 84 red pegs to mark hits, 168 white pegs to mark misses, a label sheet and instructions. Can you keep your cool under fire and keep your game afloat?
Features
Command your fleet
Strategically place your ships on your game tray and keep the locations hidden from your opponent. You'll have to track down the enemy before he or she locates your coordinates and takes down your fleet.
Keep your cool under fire
Use the red pegs to mark your ships when they've been hit. Make sure you keep you cool in the heat of battle and carefully plan your counterattacks.
Track down your enemy
Plot your hits and misses on the top part of the game tray. The more assaults you launch, the better chance you have of discovering the enemy's position.
Take the action on the go
The game comes with 10 plastic ships, 84 red pegs to mark hits, 168 white pegs to track misses and two fold-and-store portable game trays, letting you take the action wherever you go.

    I bought this for my son who is 10. We played it over and over again. The pieces are not too small and he likes the noise that it makes when you get a hit or sink someones battleship. I think I picked the right gift for him. This is good for coodination and memory.

    I was looking for the game I played as a kid for my 6 year old, for his birthday. He has played it at school and at friends houses and loves it. This is NOT that game. He was so excited when he unwrapped the game but the excitement disappeared upon opening up the game. There is now only one board that stands upright. We made the best of it telling him it was a new design, same game. Again, it is NOT. The game is confusing, he had no idea where to place the pieces as the top and bottom are now numbered differently, not that you can read them anyway. In addition, the pegs fall out and the instructions aren't helpful. We played for maybe 5 mins when he said, Mom can we put this away and play later. I can't say enough what a disappointment the game is. Now I am on a search for the old game, anyone selling theirs?

          One of my favorite childhood games. My grandchildren had the game and wanted the electronic version. I may have to fight my son who is 29 to allow the kids to play with this one.

              was very upset when i opened the box to play with my 7 year old, Again as others have said, poorly made and very annoying to play. the pegs do not stay in and my 7 year old got as frustrated as i did trying to remember where the pegs went when they fell out,and in the end we gave up playing. Why have all the good games i remember from my childhood become so poorly, and cheaply made ?? What was wrong with the good old version?? PLEASE BRING IT BACK !!

                      The honey-combed grid is confusing to understand. The pieces kept falling out and my son couldn't remember where he originally placed them making it very difficult. Now I can not find the original.

                            This game is terrible. The boats and pegs fall out as you play the game and the new board layout is confusing for the younger ones. Should not have changed the original.

                            Nice change from the original battle ship game (recover captured soldier, different ship shapes like the "trapazoidal" carrier and tripodal weapons platform)
                            I like the fact that you can take the card out to see how close you were at the end of the game.

                              It is a fun game however almost impossible to play. It is extremely difficult to get the pegs to stay in the holes. Each time we put a peg in, the pegs on our opponents side would fall down. It made it hard to track what points we had already hit. It was disappointing and will be looking for a higher quality Battleship game.
