Equip 122 mm. Yep, you can do it on T-44 or T-34-2.
Shoot at it’s tracks from the front – behind tracks there is sloped 40 mm “underside” armor – you can overmatch it regardless of angle (kinda the same as with TOG and 25 mm armor behind tracks).
If you don’t want to use 122 mm – no problem. Just find yourself slightly below Maus/Mauschen and do the same. It works for every other German tank, even current VK B. 40 mm at 70 degrees – if not autobounce you need only 110 + 40 mm for tracks…
Totally doable you just need to get close.

And what if Maus is below? HE spam his turret top, run away, wait for him to go up, shoot into its tracks… well you know.

Oh, and I forgot – in tank inspector screen, Mauschen rear looked like ~120 mm so it may be like KV-4 for tier 6 mediums – penetrable only from the rear.

>Even in CW, I shoot AP with E-100

I’m betting you are in some irrelevant clan.

Because E100 Adlerturm is fake. Mäuschen on the other hand is considered historical not only by WG, but also by SS, which at this point I trust.

Or to put it another way, think of it as a tier 9 Black Prince.

It’s the kind of tank that would be a bully to lower-tier vehicles but would be vulnerable to same and higher-tier ones.

and this tank is balanced back armour will have less than 180 which mediums can pen it with normal AP anyone can circle this tank and get under his gun

you can defeat a Maus with a tier 8 medium mauschen is tier 9 so worse so its easier to do flank it so

AND medium tanks ARE NOT supposed to fight heavies frontally
T-34s didnt try to fight tiger I or tiger II frontally powerfull tactic is always flank germans didnt fucking sit in front of french lines they rushed they flanked and they won

History is full of same stuff flank and win if you are going to say this is a game light tanks is supposed to one shot tier 10 heavy tanks and do 5 bilion splash damage i m going to say you are a crybaby

If the team have lost all tier 9 tanks (and all of them are capable to deal with mauschen) then obviously the team has fucked up and does not deserve to win. Simple as.

There was never a “Mäuschen” ! WG “found” one fucking concept worldwide? ONE! Now considering Germans kept track of every dead Jewish shoe, they only have one concept of Hitlers most beloved baby the Maus or his little brother to be more correct?
Bullshit!!!
And when WG actually claims it is “historical”, why not introduce the “Adlerturm” on the E100 ? That thing had room for a long 15cm, which would reduce the need of Gold on it.
But than the would E100 would be better than the IS7 and fuck, Russians are the worst Motherfuckers and nothing is bigger, stronger or better than Russian technic.

What is your problem? ever tried to pen a kv1 with a tier 3 japanese? it can’t pen the ass. Several other t3 cant pen the kv1 !
At these gun stats I have to say WG is full of shit. The 15cm now can only be used with gold.
This discussion is useless if not making it a general discussion about OP Russian magical armor !

Oh god dont switch the VKB for this POS. Just dont. We dont need more slow-ass tanks in the game that can barely turn around or accelerate. This will be the totally one of the worst tanks in high tiers. The armor doesnt save it at all. Just leave the VKB as it is

Also, 21 sec reload…I dont even
