[Rules] T-34A/B/C? And T-34/57? And ZIS-30 57mm SPG?

The T34/B was just coming into production in early 1941. While there were some available at the front, the bulk of T34's meeting Barbarossa were T34/A's. So I think Eastern Front is largely correct in its counter mix. The percentage of A to B models shifts radically in the later months of 1941. By September it probably a fairly even split, with T34/B's dominating by November or so. T34/C's don't appear in significant numbers until later 1942, early 1943. That makes them quite available at Kursk. Some were probably deployed for Mars and Uranus/Saturn.

I am not aware of a T34/57, except perhaps as the A20, which is the prototype of the T34. The ZIS-30 always struck me as less of a tank destroyer, and more of an AT gun on a tank chassis, sort of like the PzJrI and Marders. If you intent is to make one, look up the old old Soviet tank leader article from APL and get to work with Inkscape. I wouldn't change the AT values from the 57mm, but would reduce the armor value of the chassis.
