Teema: Another Dark Batleboats variant
I think the current version of Dark Batleboats isn't all that "dark". You still get to see the board of your opponent.
Here's a variation I know that seems even darker (and more challenging):

- each player gets three shots in turns
- after each round of shots the player is told how many hits he got and the type of ship that was hit . But he's not told where the hits occurred (of course you know it was in one of those three positions but you don't know which one). This is often played with a pencil so people can mark possible positions and unmark them once they are sure that the shot wasn't in a given spot. Other players have the boats drawn on the side of the board and start marking away the squares to know what they've hit so far.

So instead of just guessing the direction the ship is in you also need to guess it's actual position first. As a matter of fact you often finish the game without knowing exactly your opponent's board configuration (who cares where the enemy was as long as he's down with the fishes? :))

This version of course takes slightly longer to finish but is far more chalenging because you must be much more attentive to the game than in the standard variation. As a way to compensate for the great amount of luck usually involved in battleboats :)

So does anyone know this variation? what do you think of it? (it's actually easier to play than to explain)

Yes, it is jmd. You have to be a member to add your picture on here. If you ever become a member, you can send a 40x50 .jpg to info@brainking.com, and Fencer'll add it for you :-)

Hmm... I'm sure I'm probably missing it somewhere, but, while setting up my game board, how do I remove a ship if I change my mind about where I just placed it????

You can save positions either in the Game Editors found on the left (or top) links or after creating your set-up for a game. As far as I know, you can save as many as you want and can call them whatever you like. Instead of creating a new set-up for the next game, you can load your previously saved position and either leave it as is or make changes to it (and re-save it, if you like).

1. juuli 2004, 06:06:51
rod03801 
When you are on the page where you are going to set up your board for that particular game, there is an option to "Load position", and you type in whatever you named that starting position in the games editor.
I THINK I'm right about that.. I actually haven't started a new battleboats game in a while.. so I'm just going on what I THINK I remember..
Someone correct me if I'm wrong..

For the "Fast Start" tournament, I will try to keep them going today as fast as I can.

BUT unlike with BK1.0, I CAN NOT start a tournament right away. There is a script that runs every hour to see if any tournament has passed the time limit and will start it automaticly.

What I will do (and have done for those tournaments), is go back in and set the date as "already expired", and once the script runs again (Withing 1 hour) the tournaments will be started!

But I'm sure I'll be going through a few of them today, so keep checking them out and sign up for all that you like. (Plus I also have the BIG TOURNAMENT which has all 3 new games, and I'm sure will get many people to sign up!

I made this request a few months back but now BK2.0 is in place I wish to make it again. There is one more battleboats variant I would like to see. I will call it Battleboats Bonus. It is played like regular battleboats but the bonus is if you make a hit on your opponent you get to keep your turn until you miss. Actually you could make this a 2 variant request. You could play it with a dark version too if you would like. I havent seen this version anywhere else so this could be exclusive to the Brainking lineup of games. I have a handheld battleship game and this game variant is on it. I like this version and I think others would like it too.

if you install the auto-pass feature you could do it. If you get a hit the autopass would kick in and you would get to shoot again. If not it would be your opponents turn. Just a another reason to have the autopass feature as an option but for my game idea it would be mandatory feature built in.

Hello everyone!

I ended up writing some Battleboat Rules and tips that were posted on this site's rules.

If you have some time, take a look at them and see if anything is missing, or if you have any other suggestions.

Teema: Loop Battleboat Idea
Another Battleboat Idea: Loop Battleboat (Also can be Loop Battleboat Plus, Dark loop Battleboats, etc...)

Overview - if you can hit your opponenets ship with the correct amount of shots without missing, you don't give it time to "sink" and you capture it! You can then place it back into play as one of your own ships!

Details: Sink ship with correct # of hits = let say you make a hit, if you can finish hitting the rest of the ship without any "miss" shots - you capture it. So a 4 ship will take 4 shots from the first one that hit. (If you miss with one of them, the boat has more time to take on water and sinks - not letting you capture it.)

Place back on board: Not one can you place it back on the board, you can also place it in an area that your opponent already shot! (So instead of "hit marks" on the board, you will have a "1", "2", "3", "4", etc.... that way you you can tell when you last tried to shot in an area easier.

I would suggest leaving it like this. If a game times out, or ends for some uncontrolable circumstance, your ships' location will be revealed for your opponent, making it impossible to continue the game and forcing you to restart the game from the beginning. If it is a tournament game, that would slow down the whole tournament and render pawns like yourself who are in that tournament unable to join another until that game is complete.

Although the same problem could arise in Dark Chess, i like seeing where my opponent's pieces were, and be able to play through the game in that :-)
