The game doesnt care if a 2 pounder round in real life, could shatter against the armor or not. It either penetrates or don´t, thats all.

The Crusader I and II were armed with 2 pounders, the Crusader III were armed with a 6 pounder (and so were the early Churchills). These guns weren´t designed to fire HE shells either. The first multipurpose gun the British got (ie capable of firing both AP and HE shells) were when they were supplied with American made M3 Lee/Grants. Some British tanks had a 94mm howitzer instead of the usual 2-/6-pounder guns, which could fire HE shells, but their main purpose were to fire smoke rounds. A typical load for these tanks were 24~28 smoke rounds and only 4~8 HE rounds.

The Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. F2 had 50mm of frontal armor, and so did the early and middle variants of the Ausf. G. Then when the late version Ausf. G started to see the light, the frontal armor was upgraded with 30mm thick extra armor plates, something that even the Ausf. H had at the beginning, before getting a single 80mm thick frontal armor plate.
