I cannot see how a formation of units that cost 325pts, have MW shooting, MWFF4+, speed 25cm, and RA4+ can under-perform. Those are simply amazing stats.
I see you failed to note that the MW was 15cm range

It may as well be a TK attack for what it is.
I will take these guys again, however these are my initial findings. They may do a lot better against another army, however the fact remains, you are doubling most times to use this formation, and at that rate, the Thunderfire cannon is pretty much useless, as is anything needing to be shot at over 15cm away.

You are pretty much correct. No argument there.
I have a lot to learn strategy wise. As Morgan stated however, I would like to see a seasoned player actually lose a game with an AMTL list. I am not going to get carried away with talking AMTL here. Fact is, no-one likes it in our group and Morgan probably had less fun playing it than I had removing troops all night (6BP MW - Bah!).
That is the greatest problem with list development however; making sure decisions are not skewed based on extreme scenario playtests. Hence why I try to look at each game objectively, and not make huge design changes - I am at least prepared to test something to a point of satisfaction beyond the one game.

As do I. I think the 175 point costing is appropriate to make them a viable choice.
