but that frontline is going to be chewed up something awful by a range-heavy team on this terrain,

And both Armstrong and Diablo can take it. Even without a vaccume and imagining that Pit/MM hit 100% of their shots despite the fact they're firing into a melee and risk hitting their own allies, I wouldn't count on them downing Diablo, Bass AND Armstrong before the battle was up. The only non-tanky enemy for them here is Ryu Hayabusa and that guy's got more than enough credibility to dodge and parry considering his experience deflecting gattling gun fire and dodging missiles in flight.
