  A plan generations a fortnight in the making Hi everyone    Well it has been a fairly eventful (pun intended) fortnight. I finished off all the models required for my army for Lakes of Blood, the event I participated in down in Rotorua, New Zealand. Lakes of Blood break down  Dave ran a wonderful event and I managed to do better than I expected. Given that this would be the first time I used this style of list my stretch goal was to win 3 of the 5 games. I managed to win those three games on day one (and then fail miserably day 2).   My list was: ++Battalion Detachment 0CP  (Astra Militarum)  [1320pts]++ Regimental Doctrine:  133 rd  Lambdan Lions   +HQ+ Tempestor Prime [40pts, -2CP]: Power Fist, Tempestus Command Rod Warlord Stratagem: Progeny of conflict  (Keys to the Armoury) Relic (The Laurels (Yanny) of command)   Tempestor Prime [40pts]: Power Fist, Tempestus Command Rod   +TROOPS+ Militarum Tempestus Scions [110pts] 4x Scion: 4x Frag &a
