No, you are incorrect Nikitns. The Panther hasn´t been nerfed, it has in fact 2mm thicker (82mm) than it should´ve (80mm).

Armor thickness of the Panther were:

Panther V Ausf. D
Turret: front (100mm), Side (45mm), Rear (45mm), Top/Bottom (16mm)
Hull: Front [upper] (80mm), Front [lower] (60mm), Side (40mm), Rear (40mm), Top/Bottom (16mm)
Gun mantlet: (100mm)

Panther V Ausf. A
Turret: front (110mm), Side (45mm), Rear (45mm), Top/Bottom (16mm)
Hull: Front [upper] (80mm), Front [lower] (60mm), Side (40mm), Rear (40mm), Top/Bottom (16mm)
Gun mantlet: (100mm)

Panther V Ausf. G
Turret: front (110mm), Side (45mm), Rear (45mm), Top/Bottom (16mm)
Hull: Front [upper] (80mm), Front [lower] (60mm), Side (40mm), Rear (40mm), Top/Bottom (16-40mm)
Gun mantlet: (100mm)

A few of the very first produced Panther V Ausf. D´s had 60mm frontal upper armor, since that was the armor thickness that was originally designed. After a few vehicles had been produced, the manufacturers were ordered to use thicker frontal armor and it became 80mm on the upper front slooping hull, but remained at 60mm at the lower frontal hull.

Theoretically the Pz.Kpfw. IV armed with the 75mmL/48 gun were able to defeat the T34/85 from the front at a range of 2,000 metres. It´s gun could punch thru 64mm of armor at that range, however it isnt very likely but yes, it could be done with some luck (and if war anything can happen).

Finally there is only two "statistics" and unit values for MoW:

1: Single player/Editor (these settings are the same).
2: Multiplayer
