So I know this is out of the blue but does anyone have and or remember a naval game from possibly late 80's early 90's it came with a large floormat I believe and a ton of ships that you had to assemble. They had an elastic band mechanism that would fire little disks out and you had to aim it into the hulls of the enemy ships. Which would result in pieces popping and or falling off as damage. I think they were WW2 based ships but I was 8 years old at the time so I cant be sure. Pretty sure there were Subs, a couple aircraft carriers and various battle ships all ranging from 6-10 inches. If anyone remembers the name for this or any info, lemme know. I want to track one down and buy it but have to starting point.

Man I'll tell ya what. That is one thing I miss...board games.
I've even mentioned it recently when I had a group together.."Wanna get a few beers and play Risk?" and people looked at me like I had 3 heads. Board games were fun....that one looks awesome. |

Yeah, people say they want to play, until you bring it up. Then there's the, "OH, I forgot, I left a pot of kidney beans on the stove and was gonna make chili, I better go check on that corn." excuse.
