They're nerfing the rear armor on all the heavies. Why would the Tiger be an exception?

The more of these updates that come out the sadder I am. Heavies are supposed to be tough, and its part of what makes them fun, come on now stop nerfing them.

My opinion:

Heavies should be tough when they are properly facing their enemy and are engaged in a slug-fest. They should however, be vulnerable to mediums flanking around and getting rear shots as mediums are risking more by diving in and trying to circle around a heavy tank which leaves them open to snares and rear-line AT.

Heavies are tough when used properly. Don't be a derp and nothing will have changed.

Maybe have a slight buff to the frontal armor then to make that theory, when put to the test, more noticeable and applicable?

Does this mean the IS-2 gunner is no longer drunk?
IS-2 absolutely slaughters things when it hits so this is a lovely buff

My idea on the SU-85 was to make it an TD that is more efficient vs heavy tanks than it is versus mediums. Its penetration might be too much at vet, but it makes the SU-85 different from its smaller cousin, the SU-76. Gives more of a reason to build T4 if you are expecting those heavy tanks. You need a reliable counter versus them and that's what the modified SU-85 offers.

Any word on vp's and cp's not blocking pathing being added from the Mod? How about manual reload for MG's and vehicles with magazines? Also Halftracks gaining veterancy from nearby units? These all seem like crucial omissions from Competitive Mod.
