Battle Safe Zones

A university project that played with the idea of board games having a deeper meaning. I decided to base mine on bombings during war and the game Battle Ships.
The destruction, unfairness and guilt of taking lives, using game mechanics to add pressure on the players.
The number casualties goes up the more you lose.
The ships convert to safe zones e.i schools, hospitals, and residential homes. Cards are used as an unfairness system with the number of houses: zero, one or all.
All elements are changed to fit these themes; black as a base, the colours taken from nuclear bomb maps, details such as danger and houses, and instructions as a ration booklet.
