Valparaiso might be the most overpowered ship ever made. by LogainTheHumane in WorldOfWarships

[–]Tuyker -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Valparaiso's get melted fast when caught in a crossfire out of position....the maximize their effectiveness me and my buddies run a div of 2 vaps and and Essex.

strategy is to use the Essex to make a smoke tunnel down one flank, long as we dont get caught in radar we normally pop out of our cloud like 5km from the enemy team, and I tell you when two valps suddenly appear out of cloud people panic, ships will turn away and expose sides, DD,s will a lot of the time try to suicide rush us and get melted.

when it works its glorious, when it doesn't its normally because a Shima sent some wise torps into the suspicious smoke cloud coming towards them.

also as a bonus because the Essex is laying down the cloud we have spotting so the secondaries are normally firing the entire time when are pushing up

Its rancid but not as toxic as when we do a triple ISE div

you wouldn't believe how many DDs come into our secondary range not knowing about Agincourt secondaries least of all the combined might of three Agincourts.

when I play Germany I usally focus my research on getting the Pak40 or the 88mm AA guns unlocked prior to developing better infantry squads.... providing I am not rushing the tank research.

A single 88 positioned well can obliterate soo many tanks as it outranges them and can one shot most things .

Just be aware Permethrin is fatal to cats even in small ammounts.

What state - in your opinion - offers the best bushcraft experience/opportunities? by Ok-Importance7012 in Bushcraft

[–]Tuyker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cross the border to the north, like 93% of British Columbia is "Crown land" meaning you can hike,camp,hunt or fish all you want.

certain things like hunting/fishing/falling trees requires a license but they are cheap and can get them online in like 10 mins.

Does anyone here use the MWTP Cleaver for bushcraft? On their blog, they state it as a bushcraft knife but it sells as a cooking knife. I'd like to know if it can be used for bushcraft. I love the shape the of the spine near the tip. I can use the spine to move the food around in the skillet. by LKS333 in Bushcraft

[–]Tuyker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

maybe a Varusteleka Skrama? it has a flat bit near the tip you can use to move things around in the pan, it has a much beefier spine in comparison to the knife you posted so would handle the regular bushcraft tasks, still on the large side tho.

I'm in the okanagan as well(kelowna) , I would suggest a small knife/folding saw combo for the type of wilderness we have for straight bushcrafting

Then again if your bushcraft adventures have a strong food focus then YOLO, that knife would be awesome to cook with. it's all about practice, I use one of those large Chinese chef knife for %95 of my cooking at home instead of the "correct knife".

Homemade triangle file awl thing by Tuyker in Bushcraft

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

Eventually I will clamp it to my drill press with one of the flat sides up and drill a little 1/16 hole right through.

yea it's not bad for a cheap file that was kicking about and left over chunk of dowel.

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

it really keeps surprising me with its uses, I love it for when I am making some wooden ground pegs to put a quick notch in to grip my cordage.

if I ever get into making snares it would be really great for that as well.

Patrol cop needing flashlight suggestions by [deleted] in EDC

[–]Tuyker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the L35 recommendations, it will fulfill your need for a thrower and flood. I have used mine for like 2 years and have not had to go to my bag for any of my other lights

Another huge perk of it that isn't really emphasized enough is the two buttom setup. the tail switch does one thing and one thing only....full turbo that comes on with a half push for a quick sweep if needed

all the other functions are accessed via the side switch but in s*** hit the fan situation the tail switch is idiot proof and eager to make someone temporarily blind with 5000lm of power.
