Not to mention, harkening back to the Circle K question, a taller missle
would be even more likely to blow up extra invaders. It looked to me
like the explosion went down far enough now to take out an invader below
the one you actually hit, but after some play and really careful pausing
on Stella 0.7, I noticed that's not the case. But it looks like playing
with the missle much more would be a mess. Remember, this _is_ the 2600
we're talking about! Imho, I think the explosions are fairly operative
as they stand.
Maybe you could make the last invader blow up into a giant mushroom
cloud, and kinda split the difference so the average explosion would be
bigger. ;)
