The Retaliator is also a good platform to start basic mods, when you get into it, due to its simple mechanisms. I would not recommend using the Apollo as a secondary if you scavenge for ammo a lot, unless yout Nerf Wars typically use the Rival ammo. Personally, I would recommend a flywheel blaster as a secondary so you can be more flexible in case someone rushes you. The Strongarm is a good choice for a pistol, but it is a bit large. I have found the Messenger to be quite powerful and it is definetly more compact than the Strongarm/Maverick, although it has 3 less shots, but seeing as you have 2 larger blasters in addition, I wouldn't think it is a big deal.(Lumanate should be the same) A stockade is a pretty good secondary. I will check out the flywheel blasters. Any reccomendations? Also, I am thinking of going with the Rampage instead of the Retaliator. However, I tend to not use automatics (I have yet to try a flywheel though, my only auto expierience being the Stampede and Vulcan), but I think I will buy the Stockade
