Where does it state that a Tank Ace may take an Executioner? The Armoured Company rules do not allow it. The Imperial Armour book does not allow it. Besides, the allowance of Plasma sponsons on any tank outside the Demolisher is a Doctrine that only applies to Leman Russ BATTLE Tanks.

Armoured Companies are, however, allowed to take Forgeworld tanks, following all of the normal rules as stated in Imperial Armour Volume 1. This means that they are usually a Heavy Support choice.

Are you using the list from the GW site as that is the most recently updated version of the rules.
Its an even stranger day when you have a fat Games Workshop-Fanboy Ninja declare to end you for something you did for April Fools on Teh Interwebz.

It's a strange day in the world where I find myself agreeing more often than not with Swiper.  :D
