Also, I know I should RTFM, but what's the deal with these skulls? Are
they just in the game or do you have to switch on scoring or something?

I think the way it works is that when you find the skulls (which are
there
however you are playing the game), each one unlocks a different
switchable
mode once you've finished the game once. I might have that all mixed up,
but
for the skull I've found, I can't see any way to apply its effect, and
I'm
guessing that it will only become available after finishing the game.

Each one adds a multiplier to your score (if you have campaign scoring
switched on), but they also make the game a little harder. For
instance one might give you 1.5x score but will make the enemies
shields last for twice as long.

I think you can activate them after you have finished the game once.

Cool. Thanks for that.
Have you finished the game yourself? If so, do you know how the scoring
works? Is it just so many points for each kill, or what? I'm just struggling
to see how there could be much variation in the possible scores (obviously
with the exception of the effect of the skulls).
