As the title says, the ones on FW's website
http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/a/acanthrite.pdf
or the ones in Fall of Orpheus?
(the difference is a 5 point difference costwise)

As the FW PDF is an experimental rule, that means the published rules in fall of orpheus are the current ones.

Is the only rules difference for these a 5 point difference? Also which way. Honestly never even knew Forgeworld had Necron stuff. I didn't even check.. that's kind of crazy good for a 45 point model.

the pylon is argueably the best anti-flyer unit in the game and is dirt cheap.

also a good answer to the uber flying deamon of death (the 999 point tzeentchy one) thanks to interceptor and skyfire.

Also Titan Killer. You can potentially 1 Hit Kill any FGC in the game.

It isnt Titan Killer, but S. You cant quite 1 hit everything, as you can take off 26 points total (2 shots from memory, each getting D6_7 from a 6 roll?) and Manta, probably Warlord have 30....but still, pretty damn good, but expensive.

Sabre defence lines are a close 2nd, if not 1st - they are scoring and even cheaper

Titan Killer and Destroyer are synonymous. It would be easier to write S, but dakkadakka seems to find that hilarious

StrD is too many characters?

Hm, yes. That could work. I was too busy thinking of the Warhammer way of denoting strength to think of that.
