I've bought more than six of the battleships, and there's always extras.
I think they go by the baker's dozen theory, it's better to have more than
less. One set even had three extra clear 2x2's.
Careful with the red,white and navy speedboat, the colour in the navy blocks
is not consistent, as it wasn't in the extra light tan plates in one of the
battleship sets.
