Wasn't the Soviet tank strategy accuracy through volume? I remember seeing a youtube video where some comrade said, "Hey, these tanks suck they only last a month." And the Marxist Leninist engineer said, "Yes, comrade but the life expectancy of a tank on the eastern front is two weeks."
When I saw over-engineered, I mean that the Nazi's tanks had a whole bunch of moving parts that had to be finely machined, and were all hard to replace. In addition, as their tank designs advanced, the newer tanks needed even more of those differing parts. Both of these things were a liability with how much their factories were being bombed towards the end of the war.
And yes, by contrast, when the Soviets made new tank designs, they'd have lesser amounts delicate parts, making them easier to produce.
I'm not a historion but I love to imagine that the Allies bombed a ball bearing factory in Munich and the Nazi engineers were just like, "what are you insane? We can't build a blender without ball bearings built to .001 mm tolerance."
From what i remember, the t34s after the first production run were fairly sturdy. The whole point of them was to be simple to repair and bring back into the field, and that they were easy to mass produce.
Playing a tank level where your tank breaks down because it's an over engineered piece of shit made by slaves that sabotaged it in defiance

Nazi Journal day 257: freeze dried boot rotted foot tastes like snichzel if you close your eyes.

they kinda do that in BF1
you're a nazi officer and you get shot at the end
