Here's what I figured out so far: the British 2 pdr gun firing AP at 500 meters has a Pen value of 5.

For Armor Calculator: Armor of 100mm at an angle/slope of 45 degrees resists hits the same as 141mm at zero degrees slope/angle.

Is there more to it than this? I suspect I've missed something. Thanks for the help.

The instructions are in txt files which I re read again to try to figure it out. The Armor Calculator is interactive and actually calculates. I can't figure out whether the Armor Piercing Calculator is a chart only or actually calculates numbers.
