I'll take a KV1 over a T34/76, atleast in game b/c you dont face breakdown, the KV has better armor and the same gun...so if there was a KV1 vs T34/76 poll, KV1 all the way. The T34/85, though it has the same crappy armor it had that top MG and the 85mm Zis 53. So yeah The T34/85 is a quite nice tank, aside from the fact that it dies to the Pzr IV D and its itsy bitsy 76mm infantry gun.
In game the KV-1 is obviously a better tank than the T-34, unless you want speed. But in real life the KV-1 wasn't that great and didn't have a huge impact on the war. The T-34 did.
