key to fix the ship permanently. In Multi-Ship mode, you need to place three ships–the
battleship followed by two cruisers.
Note When placing your ships in a multi-ship game, you cannot stack your ships on top of

Other buttons on the menu bar are Help, Won/Lost, Done, and Resend. Help provides a
synopsis of the game and its rules. Won/Lost provides information about your record against
an opponent. Done returns you to the Select Opponent screen. Resend appears if you're
playing an OTA game; it resends your last shot or challenge to the selected OTA opponent.
Once you've placed your ship, one of the following events will occur:

In Multi-Ship or Salvo mode, the shots appear as question marks (?) to distinguish them from
previous shots, which appear either as X's or O's. Once the allotted shots have been made, a
message is sent to your opponent.
Note After you fire once at your OTA opponent, the status bar displays a message indicating
the current and total allotted shots. (Recall that after you lose one or more ships, your
allotment of shots decreases.) For example, if you've lost a cruiser and you've fired
twice, the status bar would read "Fire 2 of 3."
If you're losing badly and don't wish to wait for the inevitable, you can surrender by choosing
the Surrender button. You can also choose the New Game button to start a new game.
After the game is over, you'll get a summary of your victory or defeat.
