Is the T34 worth my time and love?

I love the thing it is (in my opinion) the best tank in WWII but in the game I
don't scare panzers they scare me.

No, we have the T-34/76 with an inadequate gun.

If we had the T-34/85 then it would be worth something.

Panther V G was the best all round tank of the war.

And the Hellcat?
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Was undergunned for fighting GVs, though in attack mode could take bombs to do the job.....

M18 Hellcat? Well... a very fine tank destroyer, fast, reliable, excellent gun. But not a  real tank. Frontal armor only 13-25mm. You will have to fire from ambush (That´s what tank destroyers were built for). And don´t let even a M8 fire back! :D

Ok. Very fast though and packed a punch.
BTW wasn't the panther infamous for mechanical problems? Or were they teething problems?

Teething.  By the Panther V G they had it sorted out.

Yea but even if the ground forces where retreating doesnt meen the LW was dead. By the time the P51B/D came to service the LW still had many good pilots. Most of the fights where over the channel and some over france tell the P51 came and downed many good LW pilots over their own country. 100s of bombers and 1000 of bomber pilots and gunners where saved due to the P51 being able to escort them all the way and back.
