VK 36.01 (H) Research Path

The VK 36.01 (H) is one of my favorite German tanks in the game. It combines excellent firepower with good armour along with decent enough speed and forms a predecessor to the Tiger tank. Do note that in one of the future patches, this tank will be redesignated as a heavy so it is possible that this guide may change.

Now there are actually many different options of researching through this tank. I've chosen the 75 mm gun which offers good penetration and damage. The Konisch offers the most penetration but you need gold rounds to bring out its fullest potential. You can select just about any gun that suits you best and stick with that or experiement. Don't follow this guide fully if you wish to experiment though; I've left the unused guns until the very end.
  1. Turret: VK3601H-Großturm
  2. Gun: 7.5 cm KwK 42 L/70
  3. Engine: Maybach HL 210 P 30
  4. Engine: Maybach HL 230 P 45
  5. Tracks: VK3601H-Ketten (B)
  6. Radio: FuG 7
  7. Radio: FuG 12
  8. Gun: 10.5 cm KwK 42 L/28
  9. Gun: 7.5 cm KwK 41 L/58 Konisch
  10. Gun: 8.8 cm KwK 36 L/56
  11. Tank: Tiger 

Also, keep in mind that you won't need to research the tracks until the very end. The stock suspension is more than enough to upgrade your tank fully.
