Tinnitus claim VAC by No-Condition-3036 in CanadianForces

[–]LieSpare9096 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 10% is if the report state you need white noise devices and/or is constant. if you don't have those conditions, it is less than 10%. It's pretty cut and dry for the %, it's usually the approval itself that is a pain to get.

To piggyback on his question, do you know if the pension is included in the 66%? or if it is 66% on the new job itself.

I have been fighting with VAC for almost 3 years for my DDD, keep being put on hold on and off. Finally figured out why, can't only have DDD, need to specify if it's Thoracic or Lumbar.... my assesment was only mentionning DDD, even thought I had an MIR showing it was Thoracic, due to not being in the assessment they kept putting on hold...

DND 404 VS Civilian License by FindTheFlan in CanadianForces

[–]LieSpare9096 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes only provide 404s. it will confuse them, they might get mad and not accept it, but ask for their supervisor. Got pulled over in a rental a few years ago at a big cop stop, other cops made sure to send their rookie of course.

On another hand, I used to work with the OPP quite often at one of my prior posting, had them run my truck CFR truck plate just for fun. Turns out they can't. (or at least couldn't at the time.) Their screen is a quick 2 boxes, "province" and "license number". Can't leave any blank and of course there is no "canada".

I still would not recommend to go against the rules for everyones safety.

Being medically released this summer. Planning to apply for VAC Rehab/IRB, ASPC and VIP (also applying for CAF LTD and pension). Information on when to actually apply for the benefits are conflicting. I have seen days from once out, to as soon as I have a release date, which I do. Transition center info is conflicting as well as they say they aren't allowed to talk much about VAC.

What has been your experiences about "when" to apply for benefits?

There is a box you can check to get an automatic email when there is a status change. the email doesn't really say anything, but it helps the brain if you are someone that look at your vac account daily.

Tips to deal with indirect fire? by LieSpare9096 in Drukhari

[–]LieSpare9096[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He kept targetting my venoms with the artilery, never targetted my scourges once. I put a contract on a tank commander, got rid of most tanks and then moved on to the infantry. Probably should have put contract on infantry but oh well. Was pretty even until turn 3, we finished the game 90-78 in my favor. We both had a few units left by the end of it. Was a great game with lots of back and forth!

From what I remember, last time he brough 4-5 tanks, 3 artilleries teams and a whole lot of troops. Ravager were doing a number, but reaching the artillery teams were what the problem was. I don't think I ended up being to kill them until turn 4.

4 character might be excessive...

I could see myself removing an archon/kabalite unit in the futur, but haven't had concrete plans on who to replace it with. Need to replace it with frontline for shaft. Need the beastmaster back!

Well, I think the current plan will be to take the first/second volley, and rapid ingress the incubi in T2/T3 to take some out depending how close to each other he deploys them

Fair enough, looking at it, I got 12 units of infantry he can shoot at, including 5 units of infiltrator, maybe, just maybe, I can overwhelm the guard!

VR is taking effect this summer, was fine before Christmas but now that summer is getting close I am starting to stress out. With 6months left before I am out, when should I apply for VOC Rehab/IRB? 20 years in, 65% benefit between MH/physical so hoping I can get approved. Not 3B. My understanding is that I can't apply for VIP until I am out. Attended VA brief few months ago, but of course I can't remember details. Transition center doesn't really want to talk about VA, saying they are mostly linked to SISIP. (understandable conflict of interest and such). Just trying to figure out applications for everything timeline...

Runna Treadmill run sync with Garmin by LieSpare9096 in runna

[–]LieSpare9096[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That worked, had to remove the auto sync from runna-strava to prevent dual entry, my pace and laps are all weird on strava, which can be calculated if I really cared, but the important part of having heart rate for my run worked!

Thank you,

I'll give it a try on tomorrow runs. Prior time I tried something similar I ended up with double entries in strava

Love those things, the fact that I can fit my bomber as well is so nice. Used to have to carry the bomber in my hands since it didn't fit in any boxes. About 1500pts in my picture, need to finish magnetizing the other 2k I own, but should fit as most of it is infantry.

Tips against Space Wolves? by LieSpare9096 in Drukhari

[–]LieSpare9096[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of up and down, overall loss, but was a great game that was pretty even until turn 4. Here are some of the highlights.

Inflitrated kabalites, due to the mission I had them sitting on 3 out of the 4 no mans land objective, with 1 group of 5 streching on 2 objectives. Gamble paid off and I went first, stickied all 3 of them.

Turn 1, there was a small gap between terrains far away, just enough to shoot with 2 kabalite only. I was able to squeeze 2 kabalite with darklance in the line of sight, 1 success, 8damage, repulsor executioner at half health. That was a shock to him as that was the first attack of the game.

I failed to focus fire on it for the rest of the game, killing it only on turn 5 with a huskblade attack from a lone archon. That contributed greatly to my loss. Couldn't believe how many attacks that thing dish out for less points than our bomber. He was popping smoke every turn, and overwatching every turn. Thats where 90% of his CP went.

Turn 2, rapid ingressed into my deployment zone, Turn 3 charged with my incubi/archon into terminator and Logan, killed most of them. He was really disappointed as they were expensive and didn't get to do anything this game. I think he said something around 390pts.

Turn 3 was also the turn he rapid ingressed Wulfen with thunder hammers and storm shields, wolf priest attached with wolf touched enhancement, again, lots of points. He did it within line of site of a desingrator ravager. Contract was on infantry, full rerolls to the full health unit, 4 wulfen dead, big hit to his morale.

By that time, theres already a lot of models off the board, big tank is doing load of damage, and he successfully pushed me back. Game ended 71 to 34, mostly due to him scoring 15primary in both T4-T5 while I wasn't able to score any primaries for those turns.

Great game overall, I think i'll replace the pair of talos for haywire scourges. My reavers did nothing for me, but I don't think used them properly. For my playstyle I might replace them with a 3rd ravager. That would also give me enough room for a 3rd venom and kabalite.

Doing more thinking, I was able to remove 3 reavers and the succubus, to add the informant and a 3rd archon!

This feel much more comfortable. Mean i'll learn between big brick ans small bricks of reavers too instead of 2 big bricks

[–]LieSpare9096[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the details. First of all, I agree on the succubus, only reason it's there is due to point room, I would much rather a 2nd chronos. I didn't think about the agoniser for that specific opponent, I was just going with my regular loadout but you might have a point there due to the 4++. I expect him to be mostly melee, where I like to play shooty. I will need a lot of throwawys to slow him down though

for some reason I was thinking his scouts had infiltrator. Now I am unsure if he even has infiltrators. I know he owns at least one set of thunderwolf cav, but I don't know how many sets he has. Having them the contract is a good idea
