In that case, where can I get one?


You can try here. If you have any luck let me know.


I'll take Goalkeeper. I prefer weapons systems that work.

Phalanx seems to be much better at own goals than goal keeping and it's
notable that HMS Gloucester defended both itself, the USS Missouri and
the USS Jarrett from a missile attack in the first Gulf war using Sea
Dart when all Phalanx fired from Jarrett managed to do was to hit
Missouri four times.

Still, we all know how the Americans love their friendly fire incidents.
Presumably the Jarrett was then renamed the USS Benedict Arnold?


Did you say something?
