Just like the drivers of a Tiger were taught, show the corner, not the front (for Tigers it was 10:30 and 01:30).
This adds 15% to the front armor and doubles the side armor. It protects the front and all hits to the side should glance off.

Maybe a check could be implemented if the front armor is a lot stronger than the side armor (e.g. Panther) and then decided if it's better to present the front or the corner.
Would any tank crew under fire have time to adjust to optimum angle?I think panic and self preservation would be the first reaction(knowing the 2nd or 3rd could be a kill shot) and they would quick move to frontal position, and pray!
