Again, the blasted Firefly is a "medium-class tank", right (the Tiger a heavy)? Though it does show the Nashorn is either way overpriced or the Tiger too cheap. Afterall, in tonnage, the Nashorn is probably pretty light, but it does have the size of a heavy. Despite what class it falls in, it should be cheaper than the Tiger, though an argument could be made contrary to that (though slightly) when you consider that it's gun is actually better than the Tiger's.
Actually this points out another thing to me, but it depends on what plays off of what. Definitely the T34/85 shouldn't be more expensive than the Tiger (different class for a start), but also note that the T34/85 is more expensive the the deadly SU-100. The SU-100 I'm quite sure was made in smaller numbers (though we're not considering that, again) and has more armor thickness and larger gun. On the other side of the coin the T34/85 while having less armor "ratings" actually is a larger vehicle, and when considering the difference in the size of the vehicles, it may have more "total" armor, because there's more area to cover. In other words, covering an area the sixe of an inch with 200mm of armor, is less armor than covering two feet with 30mm.
