HOW TO PLAY
- Before the game starts, each team secretly places 5 lounge chairs on the playing grid for their Ships to sit in
- Each Ship takes up 2 squares on the playing grid
- Ships must be placed horizontally or vertically on the playing grid - not diagonally
- You cannot change the position of the Ships after the game begins
- All players must hold a beverage during the game
- Teams receive 2 types of bombs - water bombs and one Mega Beer Bomb
- The water bombs are good for a hit on one square on the playing grid
- The Mega Beer Bomb is good for a hit on a three square radius on the playing grid
- Teams take turns firing bombs over the barrier to try to hit the opponent’s Ships
- Shots will be marked as hit or miss on the target grid by the referees
- When a Ship has been hit twice, that player is out of the game
- A revive bucket will be placed on each side of the playing grid. If a team hits it, they can bring back one of their Ships and place it on new squares
