" Hi my name is Carlos Ramos Jr. coming to you on behalf of Expert Village and today we are talking about a variety of games that you could played with dice. The next game that we are going to play is a game called battleship. The way this game is played is each player takes turn throwing the dice. You need 5 dice to play this game. Now, in each turn the player has 3 throws and tries to roll and put aside a number 6, which is the ship, a 5, which is the captain and a 4 the mate. Now the 6,5, and the 4 they cant be rolling out of sequence; they can't be rolled out of order. So if the first throw has a 6 or a 4 but, not a 5 they could only put aside that 6 and the rest of the dice including the 4and the 5 there rolled again. Now, if you fail to roll a 6, 5, and a 4 after 3 after 3 rolls you get 0; you score 0. Now after 3 rolls and you put aside all 3 of your ships your captain and your mate the remaining 2 dice, the crew, they total your score. The person with the highest score after the end of that round wins the game in this case if I rolled of these and I got my ship, my captain, and my mate and I rolled a 6 and a 2 that is my 8 that person rolls less then a 8, I won the game. Battleship. "
