just got the second Galahad and I now have my hangar that i will max out finalized. So the question, what do i do with the second Galahad
1)another plasmahad? have one already 2)Ork and Pinatas Had? 3) Taran aphid Had?
Currently have 2 DB Griffins and a Carnage for my mid ranger.
If I do not stick with the Taran/aphid combo then I am sticking the Aphids on a Griffin with Orks.
I get a lot of good info and ideas from the page and hoping there is something else you guys can bring up.

I really like the right-hand smack Galahad (#2 in your list). Works very well vs. the tons of bots with physical shields. I wasn't sure at the outset but with practice I've gotten much better with rockets, and seen good results in battle.

Instead of sitting there waiting to see who shield will break first

What about a midrange Galahad? Tulumbas and Pins. That could be interresting, I think.

I'd get the 2nd Plasma Galahad.
The other configurations just don't deliver as high a DPM to be able to take down heavy red bots in as short a time.
Save the DB and RDB setups for the Griffins or Rhinos.

Plasma.
The Ork/ Pinata Galahad is decent in the right hands, but it excels on tight maps. The DB Griffin are already biased towards tight maps, while the Carnage is not the strongest mid-ranger. Thus I'd work on setups that work best on more open maps, and the Plasma is slightly stronger there. I'd say plasma is the strongest Galahad configuration, so in this case there are two things going for it.
Tulu Pins is a very poor config for the Galahad. It's weak on damage, weak on hitpoints and it can't dodge opposing mid-range rockets. Thus it will lose a dual to almost any opposing mid-range bot. A Doc, for example, is faster, has 20% more hitpoints, does 2x the burst damage and over 50% more DPS.

Chalk up another vote for "all Plasmahad, all the time" Don't worry so much about fighting other gala's, a plasma boat is there to fulfill a role. If you have to kill one, enfilading fire will still get your through, and they'd there to clear everything *else* you run into. I wouldn't (personally) run more than two, but two plasma boats in 5 bots is about the right ratio and Plasmahad is the best plasma boat this side of an Ancelot.

Yeah, Plasmahad. Plasma has about 2.5 times the DPS than Pinatas/Orkans, and the Galahad has not the capability to "death button" a heavy robot because it will only have one Orkan. DB setups work mainly because you will be able to take out the robot with a full load in very short time, at least if it is not at 100% health. Once you have to reload, Plasma is much, much better.

I'm having a LOT of fun right now with an Aphid/Orkan Galahad! Totally different play style than plasma, but having 2 Plasmahads in my hanger was getting monotonous.
In terms of efficiency, the Plasmahad is the way to go. If you only have one, plasma all day.
But, since I have 2...

I've been running ork/pins on my second Galahad. Both of mine were plasma for a long time, but I wanted to try something new. I'll stick with the missles for now because of all the shield bots I'm currently seeing. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.

Plasma, Ork/Pinata,Aphid/Taran good. I was a little surprised by the Hydra/Spiral combo.
