I have hosted a few neighborhood nerf battles during summer. Why? Because occasionally I get bored.

Hang up little papers on stop signs, and that can be effective...

My first time I found that 90% of people that showed were 11-13 years old. That's fine, because I am in my mid teens. The remaining 30 percent, however, were people in the 8-10 year old range, and in the 14-19 year old range. I was routing

I thinned 'em out. Headshots allowed? Check. Modded blasters allowed? Check. Medieval torture darts allowed? Check. What? Had to make it fun for the older crowd! Anyway, first nerf battle went great: 9 year olds got hit once, maybe twice with the modded blasters or hard darts and quit. And to keep angry parents away, I had typed up a little disclaimer that the aforementioned "dangerous" blasters would be allowed. Luckily, no one was upset. So basically, I had things narrowed down to 11-17 year olds (the one or two 19 years olds I guess had work). Much more pleased with how things were going, I organized every other Saturday at 11:00 AM for a while.

Things were great. Regulars would bring their friends, cousins, brothers, whatever.

I felt a little underpowered with unmodded blasters, but that was okay, since someone let me borrow.

Then one fateful day, someone's cousin brought a frickin' annihilator of a modded blaster. You wanna guess what they modded? Nope. Nope. Nope.

It was a Frickin' TITAN. They had rebarreled it to shoot Elite darts, or a variation of Elite darts (like Elliot's Nipple Darts).

Yes I say, although this puppy had only one shot before reloading, it was still great as a primary. Pump that baby up, and you can snipe to your heart's content.

I am talking 300, 400 foot range. Maybe further. Accurate! (I know, I said the A-word)

Oh-ho-ho man! Even the toughest didn't want to get anywhere near that thing. Basically, its only weakness was CQC. Which some people exploited in CTF.

Thankfully, the owner has shown up to a couple battles since. And I got to use it once. I need a titan. A rebarreling is something I could try...if I have a titan.
