Where the top field is the enemy teritory and the bottom is the players. The game starts with the player selecting where to place their boats, the choice of boats are the following:

Number	Boat	Size
1	Carrier	5
2	Battleship	4
3	Cruiser	3
4	Submarine	3
5	Destroyer	2

Placement of boats require the following syntax: <Boat Number><Coordinate><Direction>. Boat number comes from the table above, coordinates must have be a letter followed by a number, i.e. A1 for the top left. Directions can be one of the following down(D) or right(R). An example for a boat placement would be: 1B3D. Which would create a Carrier at B3 facing down.
