I see 2 Routes that the moscow tanks are going to go. 1 is more likely than the other but is worse for balance while the other is great for balance but i find it unlikely.
1st route. The medium and heavier tank route. (More iconic tanks so more likely).
Axis: PZIIIL PZIIIJ/1 , 8.8cm Flak 37 Sfl. , 15cm SlG 33 B Sfl. StuG III A
This route is pretty interesting but Germany’s early tanks will be virtually useless.
Soviets will hold the advantages in conventional tank designs but the germans will not be that far behind with their later PZIIIs. They can penetrate all those tanks if you know the weak spots (Turret cheeks). PZIIIL for example if angled a bit will be invincible to most of those russian tanks. But the Germans will also have amazing SPGs and Tank destroyers that could deal with those tanks and kill infantry laughably easily. But as i said this route will mostly leave the first german tanks completely useless.
2nd route. The more light tank and unique tank route (Very unlikely)
Potential tanks:
Allies: BT7 (Artillery), T26E, Zis-30 (At gun on comsomolets tractor). T35, (please give more suggestions here)
Axis: StuG III A, 15cm SlG 33 B Sfl. 8.8cm Flak 37 Sfl. Sdkfz 222. (small, fast armored car with a 20mm cannon) (Also would need more suggestions).
I think the 2nd route would be a lot more interesting and would be more balanced than the 1st. But theyll probably do the 1st. Anyways id like to hear your suggestions and thoughts. (Planning to do one for infantry squads too.)
A note to the viewer: YOU MUST GIVE YOUR FEEDBACK NOW. Developers are working on the new Battle pass meaning most likely new levels. You need to give your feedback beforehand. When things are added its going to be too late to complain.
Thats a bit too late to say lol. PTRDs and PZBs already cannot penetrate the latest tanks. The starter tanks and the other early ones (Of germany) cannot penetrate the last tanks.
if they add more armored tanks allow engineers to make upgraded AT guns(pls dont restrict it to enginners 2)-allow regular engineers to make the snadard ones, restrict the improved ones to engineer squads
for example flak 88 for germans and 76 mm 3k for russians
On one hand I want iconic tanks like the KV and t34. On the other hand… balance wise I’m not certain any German armour would be very good vs those metal beasts.
There’s always the asymmetrical balance option I suppose… German get weaker tanks, but better firearms (such as the mkb42h for assaulters)…
It’s a tough one isn’t it?
Moscow is in a good place at the moment… But there’s files already on the Kv, the t34 and… yes, the mkb42h for assaulters.
Adding those beloved metal beasts will make tank battles one sided for the Russians… but assaulters mkb will favour Germany.
German PZIIIL could actually pretty effectively deal with all of those beasts. But only by a skilled crew. Slightly angled even T34s and KV1s wouldnt penetrate it thanks to all that add on armor. And its gun could penetrate T34s in their turret easily. I kinda checked and it seems that KV1s and T34s turret are the weakest parts and can be penetrated even by PZIIIJ. But still the disadvantage would be obvious.
Just no MKB42H for assaulters. Come on this is moscow not Berlin. It didnt even take place in the battle
But the T50 was rare but at least it took part in operation Barbarossa. The MKB42H was first used in april 1942 500 km away from Moscow. I dont think it fits then
