LOL what is this worthless crap? are you guys seriously DELUSIONAL? OR are you playing some mod? A t-34 gets splattered by a Panzer 4 from 100m at any range. Only way a T-34 can survive is 2 drive halfway up a hill into a semi-hull down position. That way its slope increases far more.
A tiger 1 tank can pretty much smash any Shermans (even Panzer 4 doesn't have a problem with those) from very far away. The sherman is a terrible tank with a high profile.
Panther DID have very thin armour at the flanks.
If Tiger wasn't angled, a T-34/85 shouldn't have any problems killing it from 1000m/front using decent ammunition.
Tiger did NOT face 400 Soviet armoured vehicles. Obviously vast majority of German armoured vehicles were APC's, medium tanks, armoured cars et cetra so they faced their soviet counterparts.

If it was play balanced its gun would have the effectiveness of the M4A4VC Firefly of the British...as for now its worse then the M4A1 75M3 gun, or atleast not alot better. Although the penetration numbers on the description say its better, field testing proves its not. I played a Tank only battle not to long ago, my dad bounced no less than 5 rounds off my T34/76 M43 from reletivly close range, having no further effects past the broke turret which I think came from his Panzer IV H. The map was warehouse and that isnt a big map from DZ to DZ, so his Tiger bouncing like that off 47mm of armor on the T34 is pretty bad. Sure the T34 has its slope but it doesnt save it that well. Even in Singleplayer I lose atleast half my T34s I get on the Penal Unit mission to those Panzer IVs. For a Heavy Tank the Tiger is garb in MP when compared to others....its my last choice. The Panther is decent but its side is like melted butter. If MoW isnt ever going to give it it's real gun atleast give it it's real armor so Sherman M4s have a harder time killing it. Even the 85mm gun ofthe Russians is only 50% chance from the front in Squad Leader, that game is based almost entirely off realistic numbers and such.

LOL, whining based on nothing. Sorry if I sound rude mate, but I have NEVER experienced this. A Panzer 4H eats T-34/76 for breakfast even from 100m+ range. A Tiger would be overkill. You would need a T-34/85 or even better KV-85 to take down a Tiger 1.
Sounds like you are using some mod or something.
Also the editor stats for armour and penetration are NOT the same for MP stats.
