Battleship was one of my favourite games when I was a young child, even though I lost more than half the time. The Celestial Chess Set by Jerod Hugghins incorporates the classic game of Battleship with a chess set.
Unlike the typical, flat surfaced chess board, the Celestial Chess Set has a spherical base instead. The design was made to incorporate the idea that the chess pieces rise up to take part in the royal battle.
