Also, I don't think I would find having to move my hand from one side of the stick to the other very comfortable, but then again I have smaller hands than most around here ;)
Attack 3 doesn't have a twist option for rolling? All the six buttons on the Force 3D pro are on the left side, I'd go nuts if I had to reach around the stick.

I dunno, isn't discussing controls a bit offtopic in this thread? Maybe it's just me, but I would rather see more "tongue-in-cheek" hints for noobs like me... That's why I watch this thread for new posts anyway...

Like a guide to ramming bbrs and htts more effectively. By which I mean ramming them off course, not as a speed boost.

Dodge the prox

Don't hit an HTT from behind into the green door

Don't be afraid to get podded

Practice - you need to learn how to lead where the htt/bbr will be so you don't waste thrust revectoring over and over.

The best way in my experience is from an extreme perpendicular angle - like ramming it straight down relative to it's course. Nans take longer to find it than an oblique angle that keeps it in the same relative plane.

Having a nan babysit the towers can work well, especially if they're skycap towers.
They can park behind the tower that's likely to get shot at first, the tower blocks most of the fire while you repair it.
This way they don't die from attrition damage as random heroes rush through. Only an organized rush will take them out.
They cost a fair bit of money, so it's worthwhile to keep them from dying to a single unit.
It is Karnage! Don Karnage! Roll the r!
