Coppit is a running-fight board game created in 1927 by Otto Maier Verlag[1] which was originally called in German: Fang den Hut (or Capture The Hat in English).
It was renamed and has been re-released several times, most notably by the Spear's Games company in 1964.
The emblem on U-995, the world's only remaining German Type VIIC/41 submarine, features two Fang den Hut characters, as seen on the game's board.
[2] Each player has four conical, or hat-shaped, playing pieces all of the same colour that start off in their home 'base'.
A player can have any number of pieces out of their base at any time.
