          In Their Finest Hour: The Battle of Britain, I have encountered a
     a slight problem.  In the eighth Stuka scenario (may apply in other 
     situations, but this is where I found it) I can sink one ship by dropping
     the single large bomb, but the other four bombs only damage the other
     ship.  Is it possible to sink this ship (or any ship) with the four small
     bombs?  If not, does damaging a ship (which is not noted on the mission
     summary, unlike a sinking) improve your mission score, or would it be
     better (if you can evade/destroy the fighters) to seek a "target of
     opportunity" on land?  
          Also, does strafing have any effect other than personal satisfaction?
     Even in the bombing of Detling (where you can strafe and destroy grounded 
     RAF fighters) I have been unable to discern any effect on the mission 
     rating from a successful strafing run.
