My problem with FFE is that as far as I can see it, you need 3 canons to stop roach agression. In the pictures you provided, they can pick off the cyber core (gg) or the gateway (and run into your main) pretty much uncontested.
Also, that picture has 2 artosis pylons in it.
I think you have the titles of entombed and arid mixed up on the two pictures.

Yeah, you're right about me mixing up the map names.
Regarding Artosis pylons -- you're pretty much bound to have one with any FFE. You just have to make sure to add redundant power at some point after you drop the Nexus.
Roach aggression can be really strong against any FFE. It's not unreasonable that you'd need at least 2 (possibly 3) cannons in the case of heavy aggression.
