Is it just me or does that game looks a lot like Milton bradley's Broadsides?

Looks very much like Broadsides, which I already have.

While its appearance is superficially similar to Broadsides, there are vast differences in how it plays, the most obvious being that the players don't remove the masts to indicate damage in Admirals.

After reading through the supporting material, it appears that they have created an entertaining game with a naval theme, but built on a somewhat naive understanding of naval history. Their claim that it "practically allows you to reconstruct a real naval battle" made me chuckle, but their enthusiasm is admirable.
