Default Things like this is suffering for this great game.

King-Tiger ( slope in degrees from the vertical )
Front Upper Hull ( Glacis ): 150 mm @ 50°
Lower Hull Front: 100 mm @ 50°

JagdTiger ( slope in degrees from the vertical )
Front Superstructure: 250 mm @ 15°
Front Upper Hull: 150mm @ 50°
Front Lower Hull: 100mm @ 50°

"Quasi Same" chassis pictures:

Here is the another comparision

Panther G ( slope in degrees from the vertical )
Front Lower Hull: 60 mm @ 55°

Swift practice...

For an example, these 3 tanks (Super Pershing, IS3 and Black Prince engage the King-Tiger of course with good old stereotype tactic: detrack, with some luck gun disposal and very risky final maneuver - flanking it with others (cheaper T-34/85, Sherman) in left upper corner...

Nothing special here, BUT !

Exactly the same 3 tanks (Super Pershing, IS3 and Black Prince)

Already are in range of which can penetrate/damage/destroy the 100mm lower hull plate on both JagdTiger and King-Tiger tanks with single APCR shot, and in this case there is no reason why risk their further unnecessarily casualties with those flanking tanks...

( Its very hard to find that spot on that Tiger II but its pointless, because you can not penetrate it, even at these ranges with JagdTiger and feedback )

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...0325F86804B46/

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...0617156772D83/

( Friendly fire is turned on )


But lets go back to our example...

Now, after Tiger II was detracked, its time to flank it...

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...1E0E4075BCDBC/

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...CF6EE02672259/

Boom and done !! Closed deal with one single King-Tiger...

Meanwhile...

But damn ! Where from did came that Panther here ?

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...55414E94605BF/

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...B999C571E6A3F/

Or this Panzer 4 ?

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...45CE131D3FD41/

Or this Hetzer ???

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...5C08D93621283/

The ambush tanks can not engage 3 tanks (Super Pershing, IS3 and Black Prince) because they are too far

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...0728BFF7AD2D9/

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59...A66583D35F6B8/

But they destroyed the flanking tanks, just like that for free.
And the score is very bad for allied.


Do not compare reality with this game please, because it does not give any sence.
But on other side, it could help this game by lowering some insane prices...
