A mixture of two classic games, Battleship Chess requires careful thought and strategy to win.

Each team has a set number of warships but only one can be moved per turn. There are special areas on the map that can resupply your ships and repair damage.

Tactics are made more complicated with land you cannot move over and bonus cards that give you an advantage. You can also select the type of ammunition used depending on the armour fitted to the ship you are attacking.

The trial version is limited to the earliest dreadnought battleships. Registration opens up the later battles in the game with the new technology that was developed for naval warfare. This includes submarines and aircraft.
