7. Battleships

Can ships cover up numbers? (that is, are numbers also considered water)?

Also, the rules mention that ships cannot touch diagonally -- what does it mean for ships to touch diagonally?

Ships cannot cover the numbers.

Thanks for pointing out the issue related to diagonal touching which does not make sense in a pyramid shaped grid. Here is the correct rules:
Ships segments belonging to different ships cannot be placed in adjacent cells.

Both of these questions will be addressed in the Q & A.

Pyramid For a row that has a shaded cell, is it guaranteed that all cells in the row will be shaded? Or is it possible for only some cells in a row to be shaded? For the Pyramid puzzle, it is guaranteed that if a row has a shaded cell then all the cells in that row will be shaded.
