# Battleship!

Probably one of the most exciting functionality Lunaris has to offer, this command enables you to start a game of battleship with anyone on a server!

Start a game with another player using example 1. To attack a square, see example 2. The grid system uses letters A-H to represent the rows, and integers 1-8 to represent the columns.

```
l+btlship start @player
l+btlship a [A-H][1-8]
l+btlship quit
```

{% hint style="danger" %}
Keep in mind that you can only start a game if you both you and your chosen opponent have configured boards! If you don't know how to do this, see the previous page about the board command.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Remember, if you quit the game, you lose! Don't be a troll!
{% endhint %}

In the image, the top board is the board that records which squares you've fired on at your enemy. It records whether you hit or missed an enemy ship. The bottom board is you, where your ships are, where your enemy has fired, and where they've hit.
