Well the fact your getting owned by AT guns means this game is historically accurate. AT guns were more frequent then tanks and were plenty more then adequete to smoke the visor right of any tank it encounters. As for imbalances, this game does a pretty good job of keeping it balanced enough and yet giving the nations their strengths. The fact the Russians have crap medium tanks is right, truth be told the T34 wasnt all that great of a tank. It is way over hyped as being the best tank in the world and crap...it really isnt all that. It has 45mm of sloped armor and that isnt going to stop crap. The 34 was only really good in the few months following its arrival, much past that it was junk. When the Germans started brining in those beloved Pak40s and 75mm Pzr IVs and stuff the T34 showed its true colors. Numbers alone is all that makes the US and Russian medium tanks anything at all.....

Also, if your having trouble with AT guns you might want to cut back on Tanks and all your armor and buy a few infantry squads. This game is NOT like COH where it is a race to the biggest and most tanks, it is a combined arms game that requires infantry to spot for your otherwise blind tanks and then the tanks sit in the BACK and blast stuff...If people could get past the thought that tanks are gods and invulnerable they would have less heartache in this game. Just gotta play it right. Infantry, set up vision zones and stuff, sit tanks and support units in the back and kinda wait. This game seems to go to the more patient ones as rushing in just gets you murdered.
