Naval Warfare

Description
This mod allows players to play the board game battleship with a twist. There are new ship shapes to confuse your opponents, abilities to combo into devastating attacks and utilities to throw your opponents off guard. This mod takes heavy inspiration from a mobile app called SailCraft Battleships Online, which unfortunately shut down on 28/08/2018 and is no longer available to play.

Note: Although this mod was designed to be played with abilities enabled, it is possible to play regular battleship as well. The classic five ships (Destroyer, Cruiser, Submarine, Battleship and Aircraft Carrier) are available in the mod. These five ships have no abilities at all, allowing users to play regular battleship as long as their opponent also sticks to these five ships.

Recommendations
Although this mod can be played standalone, it is highly recommended that you also install JEI and Patchouli.
JEI will allow you to view recipes, and Patchouli will add the Naval Warfare guide book. This guide book contains all documentation of this mod and will only show up with Patchouli installed.
