Here's a couple of things that helped me finally win. The taking of the rear objective on the right has to be timed just perfectly. If you take it too soon, the last T-34 will turn and retake it. If you time it just right, it will turn to retake the hex removing it from the fight in the center, but it won't have enough turns to retake the objective. It will fall just short. Also put a PzII in the woods on the right of the center objectives. When the 1st T-34 moves adjacent, move your PzII away toward your lines and right. Most of the time the T-34 will chase and you keep moving away, keeping your unit alive as long as possible. As the T-34 turns to chase it will turn toward the right exposing it's flank and rear to your PzIIIs. If possible go for the kill. If you get the kill then you only have the middle T-34 to contend with and it doesn't matter how many units you lose as long as you keep it from retaking one of the objective hexes.
I hope this helps.

I'm still struggling with this and it's getting more infuriating each time. In my latest attempt, I had a tank on a hill getting fired at by a Russki. Attempting to fire in reply, I get 'impossible shot'. The Russki tank moves closer, still 'impossible shot'(in open ground). The tank is adjacent, still 'impossible shot'. Okay, I think, perhaps it's the crest of the hill. I move and manouver into the hex directly behind and adjacent to the attacking Russki and I still can't get a shot at it. Next thing I know, I'm dead. One thing that is really difficult in this game is working out elevation. The graphics are just not clear enough.

I've been using smoke but still no good. I target the anti tank gun first and then start smoking the tanks. By the time I lay the second smoke I've usually already almost lost a tank(usually to the armoured car who always seems to get in the killer shot). By the time I'm facing the T34s, I've already taken heavy casualties.
