My idea for ram:

-It no longer requires to have an enemy in LoS or to target it.
-Vehicle just goes forward at an increased speed (it can't steer) for a reduced amount of time.
-If it doesn't collide with a vehicle, it receives the same debuffs as of now (engine overdrive which results in momentary speed lost). If it collides with a support weapon or building, it stops with same debuff.

When it rams an enemy vehicle it checks for the following:
-Always proc the stun crit. Double the time the T34 is stunned.
-Removed main gun destroy small chance for the enemy vehicle.
-Engine damage/Heavy engine damage depends strictly on HP of enemy vehicle. If HP is >25% (same HP threshold to trigger main gun destroyed through normal dmg) after ram, it's a heavy engine dmg. If higher, it's engine dmg. If it penetrates.
-Same for the crits on the T34.
480HP >= (basically full health T76 or 1 hit T85), heavy engine damage, turret lock.
320HP >= Immobilize
>320HP Immobilize + Main gun destroy.

Complimenting Sanders response:

1-There's no "debuff" by letting the tank aim at infantry, vehicles or support weapons.

ACCURACY:
Units using ballistic, to put it simple anything that isn't small arm fire, rolls and checks whether or not you get a hit.

Accuracy X Size.
Vehicles tend to have "low accuracy" compared to infantry, because they will be facing units which have ± 18/26 bigger size. While there are exceptions (mostly AI vehicles) this is the reason it is largely unlikely for a tank to score a perfect hit on an infantry model. Which is why scatter is important for vehicles.

Scatter:
Basically, after a miss, how much the shell will deviate from the original target. Low scatter vehicles makes for decent or great AI units.

2-The "bug" applies on either case, be it a normal attack on a vehicle or attack ground. This happen because even on miss rolls, the shell can still impact an enemy vehicle. What determines if a shot counts as frontal or rear is where the shell lands on the hitbox. Angle doesn't play a part.


3- So why attack ground at all?

-When you lose sight. Whether it be because the unit hide behind a shotblocker, smoke or way outside of your vehicle LoS.
-Against spread out squad models. A vehicle will target a specific model which might not be the most effective in a particular case.
-Praying to RNGesus to hit outside your range. Due to overshooting (scatter) or terrain height, you might land lucky shots as the shell can continue to travel forward.

What if:

-Bolsters is made cheaper
-Bolster occupies a weapon slot.
-Bolster is made to be a mp based upgrade, not automatically granted. You can opt to have a 4 man squad with 2x weapons or 1x weapon and 5 man.
-Make AT Rifle IS come vanilla as 5 man.


You will always struggle if you don't address the elephant on the room.

Before giving any squad the Ober Kar98, we could start by actually fixing it. 2 squads with those weapons (3 Obers model wise) would be suppressing squads passively.

1- Just because you can take out numbers from the modtools, means that you know what they mean in the context of the game.

2- While we have a lot of people whose first language is not English, making a little effort in making your point been understand and more so doing proper formatting to your thread goes miles ahead in getting any constructive discussion going forward.

If you force people to go to official forums, no one is gonna care (despite what your opinion might be on a topic).
