In the Ru-Uk war I've seen and heard of men asking their pals to break their limbs by either jumping or landing a sledgehammer on them. In Chechen\Afgan wars it was popular too, but also gasoline injections into muscles usually leading to amputations of said limbs. Dodging by behaving like unhealthy or insane was always an option, but as I've heard, since it became too popular, recruiting centers started to ignore any disability as long as they can drag you into a van. Are there other creative ways to dodge the draft?

Just an idea: Do they have to pay you extra if you have special financial duties?

I know someone who did that, but in a very different country: married at very young age and made children, built a new house for his family on a debt basis, had a disabled parent who needed lots of extra care etc. and all of this was just barely possible because he was young and working very hard.

Now, in case the would have drawn him, they would have to pay a multitude of a normal soldiers's money. And they did not like to do that.

In Russia? Nah. There're exclusions for men with 2-3+ kids and solitary caretakers, but they are conditional and need to be proved - if someone at the recruitment center would listen. No extra money, even if you'd sign a contract with AF, just some slight benefits for your children if you do so. Can't say about Ukraine or other countries.

Mental and physical incapacities are written into your recruitment ID and your dossier, so they may work before you've even been ordered to appear in a recruitment center.
