Battleships
so in lecture we where asked to play the well known board game battleships we were asked to play it and analyse what we liked and what we disliked about it and then we were asked to play the game again but after we added are own twist on the game however we saw fit

The game with its standard rules and the way it has been played I found it to be very slow paced but while having a very competitive objective did not give a lot of excitement to the game more frustration also I found that on the paper boards we were using the more points you started reading out and started putting down for your opponents misses the grid started getting more and more confusing but the game itself was enjoyable to play don't get me wrong

when I played the game the second I added in the rule that if your two space ship remained undamaged then every three turns it can shift one space in any direction and if your five space ship is still alive damaged or not can carpet a 3 space line in a straight line these rules certainly made the game a lot more competitive and upped frustration considerably well at least the carpet bomb did I couldn't really shift the little ship as it was wiped out within two turns it didn't so much help with the board eventually becoming confusing but it certainly speed the game up a bit much and was a lot more fun

that's basically the changes I made the game and I think that they where a success
