This was a game with opposing players holding a fleet of ships on a grid. Each turn one player would call out a coordinate to the other player. If there was a hit on a vessel, the player would mark it with a red peg, once the vessel's holes were filled (some had 2, some has as many as 5) the ship was considered destroyed and sunk. This continued unitl one player's fleet was destroyed.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
