Drag and drop to build ships Drag a ship from the command palette onto one of the flashing spawn points to build it.

Drag and drop to move ships Once a ship has been built, try dragging it. As you drag it, spaces will flash to indicate where the ship may legally be moved. Drop the ship to make the move. There is an "Undo" button to undo all your current moves. Your turn isn't over until you click "Commit".
