Well, I was a child once and I remember that each player had two grids. On one, you arrange your ships and record opponent shots; on the other, you record your own shots.

Now, it doesn't take too much imagination to conceive a game with three (instead of four) grids in total: each player still arranges their ships on a private grid, but they also share a transparent grid that records both their shots. Simple and effective...]]>Aug 30th 2008 7:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/

I think regular transparent monochrome LCD screens fit this description. Have you ever seen those little clocks with LCDs suspended in a little "window", and the numbers appearing within?

Make a matrix out of that, and you have what the above commenter is describing.]]>Aug 30th 2008 9:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/Aug 30th 2008 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/29/double-sided-transparent-touch-display-would-make-battleship-ama/Aug 31st 2008 10:02AM
