Yeah, this is clearly a problem.

IC 009. US 021 023 026 036 038. covers the use of the trademark "Battleship"
for "computer game programs and accessories for use therewith.", so we need to
step very carefully here.

"Clanship" is a little closer to "Battleship" than I would like. Given that
upstream seems to be dead here, I'm inclined for us to push to rename this in
our distribution, because we would be acting as upstream here. Try to avoid
using "Battle" or "Ship".

Also, the summary borders on trademark infringement with "Battleship clone".
Try very hard to describe the game without using the "Battleship" trademark in
both the Summary and Description. If you can't do that, let me know, and we'll
try to figure out a way to use the mark in the bounds of Fair Use.
