Viability of 3 Galahads

I've had good runs with 3 Galas.  I got experimental with the weapon configs for the last one though.  Usually I have a Gareth and midrange in there so the Galahads were doing the majority of the work.  With 1 Galahad, all plasma all the way.  When I put in 2 or more, I might go all short range splash on one and an aphid hybrid on the 3rd... or all plasma on the first and aphid hybrids on 2 of them (2 x Aphid Taran or Orks.)  It really is a damn good platform for plasma, anything else takes a bit of, ingenuity, to make useful.  I have 2 in my hanger now and the 2nd one is a Ork/Punisher hybrid.  It is pretty nice up close, where Punishers actually pull their weight, and after the Orkan is emptied the reload while firing paired with 2 post balancing punishers makes a very respectable constant stream of damage.

Short version... A good start is:

1 Plasmahad.
1 Splashahad.
1 Aphid hybrid. (Personally, I feel like Orkans compliment the Aphids better, as both are a shoot and scoot type of weapon that are capable of high damage.)

IMO the Gallahad is one of the better bots in the game and I think running three of them is definitely viable. Unfortunately, I currently only have one and just made it my opening bot and it is currently upgrading towards Gold. Even running it as a lvl1/2 bot in Gold with a Taran(10) and 2xAphids(9/8) it is super solid. I replaced my Aphid Gepard, played with a Tum Rog in anticipation of the 2.5 upgrades, and am now running the Aphid/Taran Gallahad figuring if I can use it well at low levels as it upgrades I'll be solid with it by the time it reaches lvl9. My suggestions will be geared more towards Trash Gold than the Silver Tiers, I just haven't gone back since hitting Gold and personally refuse to go and Club.

Comparatively it has ~70% the firepower of a Griffin or a Lancelot or Leo. It has more HP than a Griffin vs Plasma, less vs Rockets. Sure, a Gallahad is packing less Firepower and HP than a Leo, but with the shield you'll often be just as Survivable and with your mobility you'll put close range firepower into practice much more often. You just play a little more hit and run and a little less slugfest adding to damage and survivability.

At High Silver the Gallahad can't really replace the much faster Aphid Gepard, but by trash Gold I'd find is a solid substitute and the Taran is useful against other Aphid platforms. Just backpedal and aphids impact 100% on your shield.

How about....
Aphid/Taran Galahad
Plasma Gallahad
Pinata/Orkan Gallahad
DeathButton Variety Griffin or Orkan/Thunder Lancelot
Trident Fury

Gives you a pretty nasty knife fighting hanger with a touch of mid range.

As above, or I'll often run two of the Galahad with aphid / taran to deal with all the griffin aphid orks running roughshot over Top at the moment.

When I pull the second Fury and its heavy splash I usually drop down to 2 Plasma Galahad and swap in a Lance along with either an Aphid/ Ork Griffin, Aphid Patton or Aphid Thunder Leo as below.



Lots of combos, but three seems my upper limit as I'm less of a fan of Orks on the Galahad than some- I'd usually rather run a DB Griffin/ Rhino/ Lance for the extra firepower. $.02
