What cheat was that?  My brother and I discovered how you could get 30 
bombs, rockets or torpedos - made missions so much quicker ;)  You'd 
highlight 'bombs' and then hit the up or down arrow key just when you hit 
the button on your joystick to choose that weapon.  If you got the timing 
right, you'd end up with 30 rockets or torpedos.  This also worked in 
reverse as well, so you could get only 1 rocket or 1 bomb, if you liked. 
;)  Just for fun, my brother did a whole mission with just 1 rocket at a 
time...took him a couple of hours.  Another time, he did a mission with 
just rockets - even to take out the little soldiers running from the 
barracks or machine gun nests.  He got quite good at sniping them from 
high altitudes.
