Parameters in files loaded earlier will be overwritten by parameters in files
loaded later.

This is done already in many of the leaprc files; if not, you may need to do
it yourself.

yes...of course you have to be using tip3p water (d'oh). I'd recommend
looking inside the ions08.lib file, so you will understand what it contains
(if you've not already done that).

GB was originally developed with the idea that ions as well as water molecules
would be part of the implicit solvent. Lots of people seem to want to run
GB with explicit ions, but I don't know of any careful evaluation of the
parameters that would be needed to make this work well. Since this is not a
"standard" Amber option, it's up to you to make sure that you have the desired
parameters (maybe taking them from some publication you like; or testing
various options yourself.)
