The Sturmtiger actually has the highest health of any tank in the game at Vet 2, and has exactly the same health as the KT at vet 0.
The Jadgtiger preforms far better versus enemy armor for a cheaper price, and you don't need any fuel units in OKW to deal with enemy infantry. The problem is that the KT doesn't have the highest health, or the highest armor of any unit in the game but costs more than any other unit in the game.
No reason for me to spend all my fuel on a KT when I can do the same for a cheaper more efficient price.
my mistake, didn't bother to look it up before hand. points to the sturmtiger.
that's because the jagdtiger is a TD and performs shit against infantry. the jagdtiger is also a call in and thus has no associated tech costs. tech costs are not factored into how powerful a unit is though, which is the entire issue with callins.
the VI B doesn't need the highest health or the highest armour; it has high health and armour and a very powerful gun.
then don't spend your fuel on a VI B. yes, it looks bad when you compare it to callin tanks due to the tech cost discrepancy, but it's not a bad tank and callins/tech costs are a different issue that the VI B should not be buffed because of.
