German vehicle armor is underperforming anyways in this game. The T-34/76 was so much buffed that StuG and Panzer IV frontal armor is too often penetrated. It was 80mm of frontal armor ffs which was only penetrated at point blank range by the 76mm guns.
The nerf to German armor vet (no blitz with engine damage, less armor on vet 2) was also too much in combination with the buff of the T-34.
At least give the StuG it´s historical frontal armor. Either that or more range on the gun.

And T-34 need the same armour as PzIV, if you want historical armour.That wouldn´t change a thing as the penetration of the 75mm/L48 would still be over their armor.

It counts as a rear hit, since there is no "sidearmor" - frontside and rearside doesnt exist. Someone correct me if im wrong.

If rear/front armor works same way like in vcoh, it felt more like a lucky frontal shot than rear.
In my opinion stug deserve a hp buff or cost decrease + range increase with rotation speed nerf.

A shot from the front that hits the rear 1/2 of the tank still counts as a "rear" hit in the COH engine.

So can you use attack ground on your tank that is front facing a target tank (similar to that sherman to the left of the tiger) to get rear armor shot or does your tank automatically target for the rear of the other tank if the shot is possible?

I can´t stand all this whining about poor Russian tanks.
Actually Russians get out pretty well with their armor. Realism is already flipped in their favor. Their outdated heavy tanks (KV-1) deflect shots, their outdated T-34/76 goes through German frontal armor. Their Su-85 with primitive optics gets superb range. ISU-152 and IS-2 get a ridiculous high rate of fire. And on a regular basis German heavies can be penetrated by 85mms.
Yet that isn´t enough. God forbid the StuG gets buffed.

i want the stug to have cloak like an at gun regardless whether they buff its hp or not. i think it gives it so much as a unit it will actually have multiple ways of using it.
