Mini Battleships:
Fifty small Battleships puzzles! Place the six-ship fleet into the grid.
Rules.
Ships can be oriented vertically or horizontally. The numbers along the side tell you how many "ship parts" are in that respective row or column. Ships are never adjacent to each other, not even diagonally. Some ship components and blank spaces are given to you and cannot be changed.
How to Play.
All 36 squares must be labeled before the puzzle is considered solved. Click on an empty space to mark it with a ship part. Click on a brown ship part to mark it with an ocean ('x'). Click on an brown ocean mark to make it empty. Right-click has the reverse effect of click. As you surround a ship part with ocean, it will be automatically shaped to fit. The numbers will turn green or red depending on how many ship parts you've
Answers / Solutions: Answers are usually (and will be) posted in the comments section. Full answers will be posted on the solve puzzles page.

Anyone get #38 yet? I'm having serious doubts concerning my sanity.
You are insane enough to play till 38
I have solved them all, 38 is:
| B | x | x | B | x | B |
| B | x | x | x | x | B |
| B | x | x | B | x | x |
| x | x | x | x | x | B |
| x | B | x | x | x | x |
| x | B | x | x | x | x |
It was one of the more difficult ones.
i have solved all but 49 and 50 can someone steer me in the right direction on those... just a hint like where the cruiser would go is fine
How about 32???? It's killing me right now. A hint would be fine...
THanks Brandon, I got it a minute after I posted my frustration. Though now I'm stuck on #42 for some reason. when the given is a square, it means it must be part of the big ship, right?
#32:
XXXXOO
OOOXXX
XXXXXO
XOXOXX
XOXXXX
XXXOXX
For #42, yes the block is part of a cruiser, and since the row above and below it are both zeroed out, it has to be lengthwise, so a good start to this puzzle looks like this:
| x | x | x | x | x | x |
| B | x | B | B | B | x |
| x | x | x | x | x | x |
| | | | x | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
So, apart from the whole of the little block at the bottom being completely green, does anything special happen when you solve all the puzzzles?
Also, why does my homepage only remember some of the puzzles i did each time i come back to it?
It seems like it only remembers them in order for me. If I skip one it doesn't remember that I finished it. Weird. I'm also stuck on #49 and #50. Gr.....
49
oxoxox
xxxxox
xxxxox
xoxxxx
xxxoox
ooxxxx
Still need 48 and 50
Er...50
ooxxxx
xxxoxo
oxxxxx
oxxxxx
oxoxox
xxoxxx
And 48. Guess I'm done =(
oxxxxx
xxoxxx
oxxxox
xxxxox
oooxxx
xxxxoo
What about 46? It seems impossible within the specified limits, but it obviously must be doable. (Actually for some reason it tells me I've done 46, though I haven't; I suppose I should move on, but I want to figure this anomaly out!)
Never mind. I solved 46... and with the help of this page, all the later ones as well.
Any hints on 44?
