I made a sample of Battle Tapa:

Note that there is one one-unit ship missing from the standard Battleships set. Also, although not specified in the instructions, I'm assuming that, as in normal Battleships puzzles, the ships cannot touch?

Just a small correction - I think the solution picture for Transparent Tapa in the examples is wrong. The 5 clue has 6 cells around it, and the 1-2 clue has disappeared. The actual puzzle is unique though, I think.

Yes, the example puzzle has only one solution, but when I drew the solution I missed two things as you said. I'll fix this, but not now:)
