Asalto? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asalto

Bingo!

That looks exactly like the game I'm thinking of, but it was not named that. What I played was in one of those books that came with checkers and had different board-game printed on each page, and I'm guessing "Asalto" is trademarked or something.

The Book of Classic Board Games called it "The Dalmatian Pirates and the Volga Bulgars."

That image looks exactly like what I remember; thanks!
