Build it yourself: ships apart

What we are doing

In the classic rules ships may not touch each other, not even at a corner. Change the fleet placement so every ship keeps at least one empty square around it.

Your turn

• No square of a ship may be next to a square of another ship, in any of the 8 directions.
• Every fleet still has all its ships (5, 4, 3, 3, 2).
