I agree they look like crap against Marines, but I bet they chew through guardsmen or Boyz enough to earn back their points.

Guardsmen yes, but these days even Boyz are tough!
So with a 65pts squad, its 3x Flamers vs 80pts of 10 boyz.
3D6 shots to hit. Averages around 10-11 attacks hit.
5+ to Wound. We are looking at 4 wounds.
Ap-1 so 6+ saves, thus some of the time you will save 1.
So 4 Boys on the Paperhammer. 6 Models left. If they do charge the Flamers, they are gone. lol
Guardsmen is another story though.
3+ to wound.
So we are looking at 6-7 dead Guardsmen from 3 models. And they can charge the Guardsmen and kill some more.
If they charge the Boyz they are just going to fluff and do nothing and die in return.
