Well, I found out, that there is one KV 2 that actually managed to survive the war, but it was damaged, and had to be repaired once, and after the war it had replaced roadwheels ChKZ made for KV-1 and KV-1s and new built wings and tracks from T-10. I'm not sure, that it would be possible to actually drive, but as I said, there is no KV-2 that is capable of driving nowadays with it's own engine, hull and tracks, from what I know.

These two advantages (if you weren't careful enough) will be a very dreadful obstacle for playing as a kv2 But the kv220 amazed me for it's fast reloading and powerful gun. :D Although that I'm a fan of the Germans but they look lovely.

The KV-1 is a nice heavy tank for beginners in my opinion. It has decent armour and mobility and the gun is quite ok with some punsh. It allows you to make mistakes and learn how to play heavy armour. And then there is the KV-1B... I don"t know why people are afraid of him. Just let him get closer and then aim for his gun mantlet. Easy to penetrate and making him helpless and in reach to push him and aiming for his weakspots, while he tries to escape.
