Someone said R-Descent had less sounds than the shareware;
not so, it has more!  I especially like the "lock & load"
weapon-changing addition.  As for the AI, yep, it's significantly
harder.  Insane level I could get through pretty much all seven
levels with one ship, but have yet to get thru level 4 in
one ship.  It's a real battle.  Whew!
Another person asked about the box graphics showing
vulcan power levels; this is just a mis-interpretation of course:
the levels shown surely refer to which mine you are in.

Those vulcan power levels are puzzling to me.  They don't refer to the mine
level, they do refer to the weapon level.  I don't remember ever having
support in for multiple vulcan levels.

There also was never a laser level 14.

Due to the more stringent memory requirements, those who once got all the sounds now don't.  In order to get all the sounds they may need to unload some TSR's
or perform a bare boot.
