- GAME PLAY
- ---------
- Game Play is fairly straight forward. Try to sink the other player without
- getting sunk. You can do this by either ramming or firing cannons. To
- fire cannons hold down the fire button until your range bar gets to the
- desired range, then release. You may also raise or lower sails to control
- your speed. Remember, wind will also affect how fast you will go in
- a given direction. You may also turn right or left as long as your rudder
- stays intact. In other words, don't get hit from behind. Controls are
- changed in the controls menu and ships status can be changed in the game
- options menu. Your score is based on relative strengths of ships plus points
- scored for cannon hits.
