Romans or French : Best Nation for Global Age ?

[Meher]

With the appearance of 2 new ground troops (bazookas and mortars) as well as the improvement of the Factory troops (Speed of Heavy Tank and power of Gatling), do you think that it's time to change the classic troop formation ? The classic formation (Tank, Truck, Artillery and Riflemen) is still powerful and effective and one of the best nations that goes well with that formation is the French with their powerful tank and their ability to train troops faster but given the fact that there are some new troops, can the romans with their 10% superior troop space be a good option during the Global Age ?

Here are the scenarios for each nation :

• French : 3 R-35 Tanks, 7 Howitzer, 2 Heavy Supply Truck, 31 Submachine Gun, 1 Bomber and 2 Fighters + Statue of Liberty (no Factory troops used) + 6 more alliance troops + faster units training
• Romans [not a final formation]: 2 Heavy Tanks Mk3, 3 Bazookas, 6 or 5 Howitzer, 2 Heavy Supply Truck, 20 or 29 Submachine Gun, 4 Fighters (or 1 Bomber and 2 Fighters) (or any better formation really, maybe involving Gatlings or mortars or whatever, haven't tried enough with the heavy tank) + Brandeburg Gate (use of two/three Factory units)

I know that the British are a strong nation too, as well as the Germans/Koreans/Japanese, but these are my two choices for the global age, and I can't decide yet which one to pick.

Any thoughts ?

I don't think you can upgrade the barracks in ga (may have been a rumor). If Thats true, then romans are viable.

French are and have always been good for looting, especially at higher medals. Anyone can learn to snipe TCs and get league bonus. Their passive allows for consistently fast play.

If statement 2 paragraphs up isn't true, then romans can still be viable. Ga gives a pretty decent power spike to units and their passive can improve players attacks.

If you have the money, go French to max out army upgrades, then switch to romans to enjoy all the extra power.

One vote for romans..., been attacked by mk3s today and you know what happened (ok I wasnt 5 starred but still).
Germans are only an option if you believe that AI is not gonna improve

There isn't really a best nation for everyone. The nation is only as good as the player is. You choose a nation best suits your play style and make full use of their benefits.

To me... the Germans are the best cause I'm a control freak and I don't forsee the troop AI improving any time soon.

Why not substitute Bazookas for Mortars? Mortars can shoot over walls and your SMGs can take care of defenders. Wouldn't the bazookas just be replicating the job of the tanks/artilleries?

French is more powerful than ever because Howitzer is the King, you need fast trainning time to produce more howitzer!

That's the thing, powerful in what aspect? If you say raiding....then yes. I agree. But their TB doesn't bring anything to WWs. (But I AM jelly of their tanks lol)

Meher did not mention best nation for what perpose.

Even the Japanese can be the best nation for someone who likes to raid hrs on end, max their storage then goes offline for a couple of days... =)

Let's not forget that the Germans get the attack boost for their Howitzers with their Teutonic Fury, along with the other troops. It makes them a great choice for offense. If Howitzer is the King in Global Age, Germans who get the attack boost for Howitzers are better.

This is exactly what I did with Industrial. Now I'm eyeing switching back to French to upgrade everything again.
