Geocache Description:

Warning! Warning! Enemy Fleet Detected!

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to sink your enemy’s fleet, before they sink yours.
Cache is not at the listed coordinates. To find this cache you must first sink your enemy’s boats in this game of Geocaching Battleship.

To get the coordinates for this cache you must find the HITS on all the enemy ships in the area. The caches you are looking for to find this are named in accordance to the Battleship Game board. They start with MSGB–A1 and end with MSGB–J10.

There is a full board’s worth of caches out there waiting for you to find. That's 100 finds you could get! The only reason this is a higher star level is because you must find all the hits to get credit for this one.

Game Board Caches



Here is what you will need for your mission:

A= Life Raft divided by the number of the square in the middle of the Aircraft Carrier
B= Third hit on the Battleship minus the first hit on the Battleship
C= Total sum of the Destroyer
D=One more than the Life Raft
E=Total number of hits in the 6 column
F= Life Raft minus the total of the Submarine
G= Total sum of the Cruiser minus the total sum of the Battleship
H= Life Raft minus the total number of all ship spaces divided by 13
I=Total number of boats in play
J= Total sum of the Aircraft Carrier minus A times the Life Raft

Good Luck and Happy Caching!
