Whereas infantry combat is still in many cases probably bloodier than real life due to the losses the infantry can take from massed artillery, tank combat takes a lot longer to be resolved. 25 SS Panzer IVG's vs. ~10 T-34's is highly unlikely to have a happy ending for the Soviets, but it will take time before the units are destroyed.
Squad Battles has an optional rule which takes the unit's quality into effect. Most folks I've played use this optional rule. I'm not a PzC guy, so I don't know if this type of rule is utilized on an operational type scale....
Quote:When the Quality Loss Modifier optional rule is selected, then the casualty and effectiveness losses suffered by infantry, both Teams and Leaders, is affected by a factor that depends on the quality of the unit:
• Units of Quality A have their losses modified by 0.5.
• Units of Quality B have their losses modified by 0.75.
• Units of Quality C have no change to their losses.
• Units of Quality D have their losses modified by 1.3.
• Units of Quality E have their losses modified by 1.6.
• Units of Quality F have their losses modified by 2.0
