Battleship Sci-Fi v1.7.1

This is mainly a bugfix release. Most important fix is the reactivation of destroyer insignia awarding, which went broken during the refactoring in previous version. Other nice change is the visualization of enemy ships after game end (especially, if you have lost the game). And additional minor fixes were done as well. I hope you enjoy the game.

More interesting changes are on the way...
