1. Nerf German T3 units,decrease its cost
2. Buff soviet T3 units,increase its cost

To make German and soviet T3 both has its own advantage, now P4 cant just kill the T34 and run away like a boss, combine arm and tactical movement is more important.

however, onething, i am confused is IS2 does same damage as T34/76?
maybe someone will spam t34 like a boss after patch.

The IS-2 still has its AoE, I think, so it still has a big splash (with much larger scatter though). However, its reload time was decreased by a third to compensate. The main goal was to keep it from one-shotting squads, but still be very effective in destroying squads as well as battling other tanks.

I think actually the P4 and Ostwind got buffed for their role. IS-2 might have the same damage but it has more penetration. Although it's a bit weird that 122 mm gun inflicts the same damage than a 76 mm gun.

Atleast IS-2 has 340 frontal armor, so its going to a pain in the ass for the germans

From the front it has always been a pain in the ass, but now flanking is more rewarded due to lower rear armor. Also no changes to it's side armor which is pretty weak to PaK shots (this is good).

There is no side armour in this game only rear.And tigers rear armour got MUCH more reduced.
