The Grand Naval Game of Tactics

Australian game of World War II vintage or slightly earlier. Box features a group of adults playing game. The box contains a board pierced with holes, around 400 wooden coloured matchstick-type pieces and the rules. Each player controls his own fleet at the same time trying to locate the enemy forces. I think this must be a Battleships-type game but the pieces, that you thrust through the board to hopefully score a hit, are different colours and this must have some effect on game-play. The manufacturer describe it a "Thrill for Adults". But, covering all bases, it is also suggested for children. Nice to see wooden components.
