None of the tanks involved are higher than tier 4. On the French side, the highest tier vehicles are the Char B1 and the SAu-40, while the Germans have the StuG III B at tier 4 (representing a StuG III A in this case). Most of the tanks involved, however, are tier 3 (such as the D2, Renault UE 57, Panzer IIIA and Panzer IVA). This makes it more accessible to more people.

In addition there’s very few tanks involved at the time of the campaign that could be considered imbalanced with their historical equipment (except, perhaps, for the Matilda II, which the Germans could only KO with the 88 mm flak gun at the time).

The Battle of the Bulge was just horrendously imbalanced too, but NOT in favor of the Germans, since the Germans could only win if the team worked together (and usually, they didn’t). All the Americans had to do was either zerg rush the Germans or dogpile the cap and they won every time.

Having lower-tiered historical battles will open it up to more people and thus hopefully shorten the wait time (though I do question their logic of having T-34s and KV-1s going up against Panzer IIIs with 37 mm guns and Panzer IVs with 75 mm snub-nosed howitzers – it’s historical, but hopelessly imbalanced – a better option, imo, would have been the Battle of Arras in France, 1940)

F***, yeah WG! Took only couple of years to fix it. I even cannot count those lost battles because of pressing “4″ on my keybard didn’t give me the option to repair something but reloaded my ammo to gold rounds. So, instead of getting to hell out of open field and shooting back, I was still tracked and got another forced reload to unnecesary ammo.
Hope, it will be really fixed.
