Yes. In the example, some regions contain a full 1-cell ship and one cell of another ship. There is no instance of a 2-cell ship in the example but it can be fully contained in a region.

Puzzle_Maestro Posts: 28 Country : United Kingdom	Puzzle_Maestro posted @ 2026-09-28 4:38 PM I have the same question regarding Sea Battle that I'm not sure the clarification fully resolved. Could a region entirely contain a 4-length and a 3-length ship? Or is the intention that exactly two cells in each region are covered by ships? (Actually I guess it must be the latter, but the IB reads like the former) Edited by Puzzle_Maestro 2026-09-28 4:40 PM
