Oh this is the movie edition the blue pegs I don't know what they do but usually I use when playing with advanced weapons mode which is a cool feature in the movie edition in advanced weapons every ship has one but if your that specific ship is sunk you can't use the advanced weapons and you can only use it once in a game the carrier can send out aerial squadrons which is what the planes are for the plane can search in a specific coordinate and then you can choose to search in a + or x search pattern, if it finds a ship it will attack it, however the planes are to be placed on the aircraft carrier and if the carrier is hit at that very coordinate you can't use that plane but you can still use the other one if it was destroyed, as for the battleship's advanced weapons (I'm just gonna refer as AW for now on) is to fire at a coordinate in a 3×3 square, the red Jap destroyer's AW can fire at a coordinate in a line of three pegs vertical or horizontally, the blue American destroyer's AW can also shoot in a three peg line either vertically or horizontally but it can only fire on the grid edge but I can also do something called a scan which scans a coordinate in a 3×3 square, it will tell you whether there is an enemy within that scanned area but it won't tell you it's specific coordinates so that usually what I use the blue pegs for, I use it as a mark for possible enemy coordinate and lastly the RIHB's AW fires at only ONE coordinate and it can only hit the planes so it's AW is practically useless unless you found the carrier and magically know where the aircraft are which isn't too much of a far fetch cuz the game actually has a set of predetermined set of coordinates on the rule book and it can be used on the game to save time, becuz the game is done electronically you can choose between custom set up or predetermined set up if you use custom you can place your ship however you want but you'll have to insert your ship's coordinates but in the predetermined set up you just have to place your ships according to the set up you chose then insert the code of the set up you chose but preferably the custom set up is the best cuz then the opponent can't just look at the rule book then look at the remaining ships you have and attack the very coordinates where the rest of your ships are I know this is very long but there is still more to it If you wanna know more I can post some pics of the rule book here on this stream hope you liked this, took me 13 minutes to write
