Well, any SM dread can take twin lascannons - they just put them in
different boxes
with different names, but they all have all wepaon options available,
it's just a question
of points. Hell, predators can get 4 lascannons (the "annihilator" <sp>)
and they aren't
mentioned for AT, so there is some flexibility. Since a dread can take
twin LC's, and
one AT shot from a LR represents 2 LC's, I don't see a source material
limitation.
I also really like dreads anyway, and an AT shot would not neccessarily
make them
game breakers, just let you orient them for "anti-personnel" or
"anti-tank"
        For the rest of the dreads, well, based on 40K I rarely see a
difference between
1 LC and 2 linked LC's as one is usually enough to utterly waste a
target and the
2nd shot is wasted, so I'd certainly be willing to give a single
Lascannon or Hvy PLasma
gun an AT shot.
