Does the new FAQ hinder there effectiveness or do they have a special rule that bypasses it?

They have no special rule that bypasses the "casualties may only be removed within range of firing weapons" part.

They do have second ranged weapon though, with 18" range, so if one model fires that, issue most likely becomes moot.

Also, i usually have a herald in the flamer squad shooting with daemonic gaze, so the range that the flamers are effective is the range of the daemonic gaze. If not, then just shoot one of the flamers with warpfire to make the FAQ restriction moot.
