From the Wikipedia entry:

'Battleship is a guessing game played by two people. Although popularized in the United States as a commercial board game, first published by the Milton Bradley Company in 1931, it is known throughout the world as a pencil and paper game and predates the First World War in this form.'

This game is played on four 10x10 grids (two per player). One grid per player is used to hide his 'fleet', while the other grid is used to track shots made at the opponent. Each player is trying to eliminate his opponet's fleet first.
