One other point to remember about the Eldar (and Tau) spaceship costings is that they allow for orbital deployment for certain units, something that the AMTL does not have and so the cost should be less.
I'm for 175pts maximum (whist believing that there is no need to change the cost at all really).
The Eldar Wraithship doesn't allow for planetfalling any formations, and only has a single attack, at 150 points.
Two Pin-Point attacks is a great boon to the AMTL, as they can "open" with that attack to, potentially, eliminate a lot of "smaller" War Engine threats, such as Shadowswords or Cobras, and there's nothing the enemy can do about it.
I got the Wraithship and the Dragonship confused.
I still don't believe that a Gothic Cruiser is worth 50pts more than a Lunar Cruiser.
The Lunar Cruiser is just as effective at killing a superheavy tank and it will usually deter the Guard's opponent from placing formations in preffered (defendable) positions as the orbital barrage can be devastating. It can really influence deployment.
Sorry guys, 200pts for a one shot wonder is too much (at least the Tau can planetfall units giving the Spaceship more value, but since it moved to 200 pts I haven't used it once). At least a Deathstrike Battery can claim objectives/place blastmarkers after (
if) it fires it's missiles.
