  Additional notes:
  
1) <Alt>-<v> to get mission designations.
2) The following are not included in killscore:
   a) Missiles (Bio/Skipper),
   b) Turrets,
   c) Fighters parked in carriers,
   d) Ejected pilots,
   e) Ground objects,
   f) Disabled tankers,
   g) Shield generator,
   h) Fault lines.
3) Later presence of Sheffield, Coventry, and Ajax depends upon
   your success in the earlier missions. If they were destroyed
   in the early stages of the game, they would be absent in the
   later actions.
4) The number of waves of enemy fighters covering the cap ships
   may depend upon how fast you destroy the mother ships.
5) Victory's killboard is unstable.
