I've just noticed in the list the preds are the annihilator versions (post Heresy), not the destructor versions (pre Heresy). I've always played them as autocannon/2 lascannon, tis only now I've noticed they aren't! When did that happen? Were they always Annihilators?

IIRC the Twin-Lascannon with 2 Heavy Bolter version was in there from the beginning of developement.
DOn`t know why. But CSMs in every edition can use Twin Lascannon turrets in Wh40k.

Yup, one Autocannon and two Lascannons. That's what the MK I Preds came with.
