# Notes about the game:

For those who wish to know more about the mechanics of this game, I have included this basic break-down of the finer details:

**Chance to hit:**

The ships fill up 20 spaces out of a possible 100, so the probability to hit on the first shot is 0.2

As the game goes on, the probability increases since there are less squares to shoot at.

**Reward distribution:**

Since there are 20 squares containing ships, each hit will be worth 5% of the total SBD payout from this post.
