Where is the butcher cannon for the contemptor dread??? All I see is a decimator butcher cannon on the FW website

That is the only one. You have to build your own.

The usual conversion is to use the Contemptor's Kheres assault cannon arm and replace the barrels with the ones from the Defiler's reaper autocannon.

Example (not mine):


Alternatively, the Decimator's butcher cannon arm can be made to fit a Contemptor with some minor bodging (also not mine).

Any kind of double-autocannon bit would be fine as well.

I never saw either of those weapons being equal to firing 4 str8 shots, honestly. Used Forgefiend Hades Gatling Cannons on mine.
