Gameplay Notes:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The object of the game is to destroy as many helicopters and
paratroopers as possible.  If a paratrooper lands on the ground
he may still be hit by flying debris or by another paratrooper
free-falling on top of him.

There are two levels of play:  Regular and Advanced.
You may select the level of play before the game starts.

Keep in mind that you have until the START of the next sortie
to try and kill the troops on the ground by raining burning
wreckage on them or dropping their fellow troops onto them by
shooting away just their parachutes.

When the new sortie starts, if there are more than four (4)
troops landed on either side of your base, the game will end.


Scoring:
~~~~~~~~
Helicopter:        50 points
Parachute Only:    15 points
Trooper:           10 points
