So I'm gearing up to play in a team tournament with CoC next month and just got in my first game ever with one of the lists I'm considering.
my list Iron Mother w/ servitors axiom axiom TEP 3 attunement servitors free 3 attunement servitors free 3 elimination servitors free 3 elimination servitors free 3 elimination servitors optifex directive
against goreshade2 inflictor seether defiler defiler max bane thrall with UA max bane thrall with UA tartarus withershadow combine
I was able to shoot a large portion of the banes off the table on the feat turn as well as reel in a bonejack and the seether and pound them to death. after that, he charged an axiom with tartarus and a couple bane thralls to knock out a whole side, but I just had too much in play still. The TEP was amazing as advertised.
Overall, I liked the list; the ability to stay back and shoot at a good range with fire group while being able to demolish things in melee. It was an easy matchup, I know. between the axioms and the TEP, I could kill off 15+ infantry a turn without too much trouble.

Something I would suggest when running two PAs is dropping your paid-for servitors and bringing another unit of OD to keep both your Axioms in full shape.

Also if you can fit in a cheap jack for turn 2 arc-noding, like a Galvanizer, that would do wonders. Dominating a jack early one can really screw up his game. Even if to just turn it around and shoot it in the back, or to get backlash on it.

Something I would suggest when running two PAs is dropping your paid-for servitors and bringing another unit of OD to keep both your Axioms in full shape. The points don't work. Elimination servitors are only 3 points, the OD is 4 points. You'd have to drop an Axiom/TEP to fit it in. It's an interesting list, but I'm not sure how efficient it is. There's no corollary, so Iron Mom has to allocate 3 automatically because outside of feat the Axioms need that focus. Then you probably want to upkeep tactical supremacy which will most likely be on the TEP to help protect it by letting it back up. Then fire group leaves Mom with 2 focus to camp. If you're absolutely dedicated to three huge bases (which I can totally respect by the way because it looks amazing on the tabletop) then it's a good list. You're going to have trouble with some things though. Stealth hurts your list a lot. The TEP can only threaten so far a turn. Heavies that can't be dragged like in Khador, Skorne, and Mercs can be a problem because your Axiom only has a 10 inch threat in melee. You need those drags to get work done. A single stealthed model can be put in a heavy and now you can't drag that heavy. In my experience with Mom she needs to get a massive amount of work done on her feat because outside of feat her battlegroup is only Mat/Rat 5. I'm not sure you have the quantity of attacks to leverage the amount of work you need. Accelespiker shots are nice, but they're only pow 11. There's some infantry that doesn't even do much against. Things like sentinels or satyxis because sentinels are too high armor and satyxis still need 8's to hit even on feat turn.

I've debated taking the arc node solo for dominate/backlash arcing. Can't quite fit in another OD unit with the points as noted above.
The other thought for me was to drop an axiom for an Invertor, cypher and a diffuser
