hey pardon me but the KV-2 was a very formidiable AFV for its time, but for KwK 4275MM L\70 Panther (tungston core ) ap rounds to bounce off repeatedly is just going to damn far!
Ok for the sake of the playability question in the game itself it takes 2 rounds to kill almost any AFV, (except JS-2 Which is a whole different story i have issue with also).
But for the Tiger or Panther to bounce repeated rounds off a tank( KV-2) that had basically the same armour thickness of a T-43(thats right up armoured version of T-34 in 1943 was designated T-43.)is simply not feasiable. By the way the 75L (MKIV) penetrated T-43 armour at 800 meters.
Ok the 'Beast Killer' the SU-152 i could see it soaking up several rounds from a Panther or a Tiger but not a KV-2 !
