Battleship Game, 1985-1991
Add to SetSummary
Battleship by Milton Bradley has been produced since 1967 -- the game's concept however is older. Players hide their ships on separate grids, then alternate firing shots at the opposing player trying to find and sink their fleet. This 1980s version used black cases, red and white markers and plastic ships; earlier ship target games used only pencil and paper.
