Brandenburg gate or Statue of Liberty

[snowleopard]

I am mulling over which wonder to choose
BG: Gives you a Blitzkrieg power plus 20% factory troops attack. (I like the blitzkrieg but, since I don't use factory troops it is useless advantage to me)
SOL: 20% Air unit attack and 250 oil daily. ( 20% air attack damage looks really good but 250 daily oil is really less amount)

Can someone give me input on what to choose who are using these wonders?

 

[Brand Marrow]

both good choices... there are a few old posts going back and forth on this question... basically it depends on whether you use factory troops, particularly heavy tanks, if not SOL is better option

Also does anyone know if SoL buffs helicopters? If so that makes it a lot more attractive.

 

[Quovatis]

nope, just stuff from the airstrip. It doesn't buff paratroops though.

Statue of Liberty since I don't use any factory troops
even if i do use them, they don't have a problem with the dps, just their stupid AI get fixed n they will be awesome even without the bonus 20%
since i use 4 fighters, the 20% bonus matters very very much to this strategy but bombers won't benefit much i guess

If you want to try armies with more than 2 HTs (eg 4 HTs, 4 howies, rest infanteries) Brandenburg is A No brainer. In combo with tetonic fury from german nation, it's awesome.

What about running something like 4 tank, 4 artillery, 3 supply truck and the rest shooter infantry... would it be worth it to take Brandenburg Gate and replace the shooter infantry with gatlings / machine guns?

Ive had both, stuck with the SoL... as I love my aircraft

Also the gate helping out factory troops, remember factory troops use OIL. nexon are sneaky.

 

[Funks]

Yip exactly my thoughts too. I only use factory troops as mop ups in MP or train more and use frontline for Wars only

 

[Funks]

You must go through a lot of oil. Id rather save it to get more powerful generals tbh.

I am a British nation, therefore I only use howitzers and riflemen for attacking. I see there is an advantage of SOL over BB in this scenario.

You seem to ignore the additional tactic that bradenburg gate confers....Just for that it might be worth a shot...But then again, I'm not yet IA, so I can't decide yet!

 

[snowleopard]

I know there is another sabotage which you get, that is why I am confused. Whether Blitzkrieg outweighs 20% air attack.

Blitzkrieg + gladiator tactic breaks bases in a way no airplane damage buff can. HOWEVER, what really makes the SoL shine is that it makes it so your attack planes can actually snipe and kill buildings that could essentially be a threat to them. That lone tower or anti-air that's not being guarded by another tower/fort/anti-air? That's a dead building for +4 planes with SoL buff. American coalition also helps in giving them more hp.

Thanks for the answer. I have gladiator tactic and I am also a very active world war player. I am on my 3 stage of wonder completion and currently I have chosen BB gate. Let's see, it is a tough choice.
