The problem with the Spirit is more that it compares unfavorably with all the other Tartarians. At 150 hit points, it has the lowest hit point base. 8 action points makes it very slow on the battle field, magnified by its lack of a feet slot. Titans and Cyclops have the standard humanoid item slots making them better SCs and they have far better paths making them easy to give priority.
The real choice is between the Monstra and the Spirit - the Spirit has a body slot which the Monstra lacks. The Monstra, however, has 46.666...% percent more hp (220 to 150) and entirely random magic and more paths than even the female titan to boot, making it a better choice to GoR.
Further, the Monstra is really poor as a standard unit, only having fist attacks. The spirit has the rather decent Tartarian Chains attack and some regeneration, making its baseline fairly capable in combat. Remember that the Spirit also starts with poor amphibian, unlike other Tartarians - you could take them as troops beneath the waves while other Tartarians fights your land-battles.

I agree, the Monstra sounds better to GoR. But the Spirit seems to me to not suck when GoRed and be superior to the Monstrum as a commander.
So it look like it would be (Titan, A/E Cyclops), then (Titaness, E Cyclops), then Monstra, then Spirit, then Monstrum.
