4. The OBSESS splitting mines cause a lot of trouble for beginners.
I find the best way to get past them is to drop to the bottom
side, let them get halfway down the screen, then thrust to the
opposite side while firing. You usually have JUST enough speed
to dodge the fragments.
5. It doesn't state it in the manual, but you are awarded bonus
ships at 50,000 and 200,000 points. I don't know where the
next point bonus is, but it is somewhere beyond 492,300 (my
current high score!)
Finally, the book offers a clue to finding the CLEOPATRA mask for
a huge point bonus (1,000,000 points!). I've not yet found any
definite clues, let alone the mask. How about it - any of you
cosmic gunslingers found it yet?

I played the game in the arcade and then rented it, I liked
it in the arcade, but felt that the home version lacked somthing.
There is a Sega game very similar, and I think that it is by far
a better game.
All this for just $19.95...

I don't know of a way to start off with more, but during play look
for the green squares with the ? in them. Try to shoot then all
as behind one of them is a smiling face which will give you an extra
ship. I have gotten up to theta (five levels deep) using this method
and along the way picked up 9 additional ships by zapping this ?'s.
