I am going to spend 13k/15k WSP on a bot. Assume any WSP/Ag weapons (either I have them or I will buy them next), and that I will try different load-outs.
Which bot would you pick, if you had to choose for me with this info?
Related, is it known if Dash is going to be WSP or Au bot?

I would say, buy a Rhino.

If you don't have the weapons already, none are going to be very effective. War Robots 101 : slots - weapons - bots

Really depends on your personal preference. Chances are that none of these robots are in your hangar permanently - Rhino is weaker than Galahad, Rajin too slow. I'd argue that you don't really need a beacon capper if you have a Galahad or two, so Stalker is also not really necessary. Fujin appears to be mostly a situational robot as anti midrange with Hydras or Molots, maybe a bit better than the Griffin because of the Ancile. However, Stalker and Fujin are a nice change of pace, as they allow you to try different playing styles and I enjoyed to have them in my hangar on occasions.
Carnage - I can see a hangar with a Thunder Carnage and a Zeus or Trident Carnage, so if you have fun with your Carnage, why not?

Not yet, I want something which has potential to deal more damage now. Stalker is probably the next WSP bot after this, but I'll use a Gepard until then. |

Rhinos seem rather flimsy recently, Carnage you already have and Fujin is a specialty bot. That's why I came with this short suggestion...I would say, judging by performance of some stalker pilots, that from WP bot crowd only Carnage and possibly Stalker can keep up with shielded bots. The 2 light hardpoints are not so bad considering the survivability of this little nightmare on legs. I have no stalker yet, but I do have Carnage. It was a bit of disappointment for me at first, but now 7/7 with tridents is doing quite well; 7/8 to be done shortly. If you need a raw firepower - Griffin? After latest adjustments I guess it's (in average) at least as good performer as Rhino...if not better. In short - WP: Carnage or Stalker. Firepower - Griff. That said, the jumpin' funny wabbit could be the jack of all trades (more likely 5k Au than WP though lol) |

If you don't have the weapons already, none are going to be very effective. War Robots 101 : slots - weapons - bots True, but at the moment I am really at loss on what weapons to get so I can use them in my current bots, so I decided to get a new bot first  . Also for some variety, as the new bot will still be equally effective as my current bots with my current weps. And WSP accumulates with time anyway, so order isn't that important when you're not beelining for 12/12 hangar. And especially with the new MM, being more effective isn't automatically rewarded with more fun... |

Crapping Tridents are everywhere nowadays as well as shield bots. My recommendation is get a trident carnage. It can counter shield bots and duel it out with TT Furies.

Wait. I played the new bot on the test server and it's worth the wait. I think I'll do this. So I'll have a bit of extra WSP to spend in the meantime. Eeny meeny miny moe, Magnum Taran Trident Stalko... |

With a 2nd Carnage, maybe they'll breed and multiply like rabbits?
