RE: TO ALL INTERESTED in the Subject...
Hal, i meant that King Tiger and IS2 should be excluded from having invincible front armor (i.e. TBU apple shielded from frontal hits).
Don't you agree?
About team blancing, our tank club has a way to evaluate the 'strenght' of a team by assigning 'strenght points' to each vehicle in the team itself.
The sum of all strenght points give the total strenght of a team, which must be on par, meaning having a maximum acceptable difference of 3 in strenght.
The strenght point we adopt are as follows:
Light tank: 3 pts
Medium tank: 4 pts
Heavy tank: 6 pts
Tank with IFA: 12 pts
So if TEAM RED is 1 light + 2 medium + 1 heavy (17 total strenght points), and TEAM GREEN is 1 light + 3 mediums (15 strenght points) the teams are still considered balanced (difference in strenght is 2).
Same if TEAM GREEN is 3 heavies (18 strenght points).
With this evaluation, 3 mediums + 1 heavy are perfectly equal (18 STR points) to 3 heavies.
