I wanted to ask if someone knows how front / back armor works in CoH2. What part of the tank starts to count as the back armor? I will try to draw it.
Is it like that (red = back)?

Also, when we are already at it, how do you calculate the chance to penetrate the armor of a tank? Like, lets say it is a StuG IIIG with 140 penetration against an IS-2 with 325 armor, how high is the chance to penetrate with a shot?

That's the correct one.
Chance to penetrate armor is penetration / armor
Therefore chance to penetrate IS2 from the front with Stug is
140 / 325 = 0.4307 = 43%

Thanks for that answer, now I know more again
