well that may depend on rather you have the speaker tower upgrade to help the tankes fire faster, in which case I'd go with the prop tower. But, if no upgrade, I may be close, but I think they prop tower would still win out.... but I'm no expert, you could easily test this.

If I remember correctly when using Gattling Cannon Overlords and Propaganda Overlords, the Speaker Tower's healing effects counteract the Gattling Cannon damage. Now, if the Gattling Cannons had the Chain Gun Upgrade, and the Speaker Towers didn't have Subliminal Messaging, the Gattling Cannons might damage the Overlord faster than the Speaker Tower can heal it. Assuming the Overlords aren't promoted, and can't heal themselves.

Welcome to the forums, by the way.

Okay, I made a test map to see how everything turned out:

1) In the overlord with the gattling cannon vs the one with the propaganda tower, the one with the propaganda tower won with a pretty low health.
2) Same setup but with the chain guns upgrade, the one with the propaganda tower won again.
3) Same setup as the first only with subliminal messaging, obviously, the same one won with a lot more health.
4) Same setup as the first only with subliminal messaging & chain guns, the same one won.

5) In the Nuke battle master vs the Tank battle master, it was a tie. They both blew up at the same time. But even though the Nuke battle master is faster, it really isn't that much better because in groups the explosion of one tank affects them all.
6-7) I added some spice to this & made the Nuke & Tank battle masters against the laser tank. The laser Tank won both times.

If you'd like to see these situations yourself, download the map.

The second to the top battle, the gattling tank has chain guns, the third doesn't, but the propaganda tank has subliminal messaging & the forth battle, both tanks have both upgrades.

How about testing the nuke bm vs tank bm with their own upgrades too? The upgrade for the tank gen can be quite interesting, same for the upgrades found in the nuke building.

If Tank BM has Autoloaders, the Nuke BM has no chance.

If the hacker was kept busy, the mini gunner would eventually win. Unless the overlord has a gatling cannon & takes out the hacker quickly.

Well the Nuke Battle Master already has two upgrades from the start, uranium shell & nuclear tanks. But even if you had 5 of them with Nationalism upgrade vs 5 Tank Battle Master with Auto Loaders, I'm sure the Tank Battle Masters I'm sure would win firing 3 times faster like that & the Nuke Battle Masters would hurt one another with their explosions.

Actually... the overlord may still win since the hacker eventually has to take a break... but TWO hackers, and the mini gunner owns him (I think)

But with the isotope upgrade, it wont blow up. Otherwise, take the opportunity for your oponent to cramp battlemasters in his base. Launch the nuke and kaboom!! the base will be nuked.
