Bead of Might build or How in the god emperor do I get 8 AP at the star of my turn?

[Squee]

So I acquired this item and I really want it to work cus 30% more damage sounds pretty awesome. Problem is I don't know how to do that from where I am right now at the tale end of Act 3. I did get, what I thought was a permanent effect, a bonus of 1 Ap for preaching the emperor's prayer against a word bearer but seem to have lost that effect at some point.

Do anyone know how to make this work cus I think it'd be pretty funny to turn my tank into even more of a blender or my sniper into a tankbusta?

Pasqual, as a bounty hunter or assassin with a plasma gun.
Have cassia be a grand strat, and take the talent that makes it so allies that start in teh back line have the cost of their attack reduced by 1.
You then have pasqal take the talent that generates 1 AP if you shoot with plasma

Put the back line on pasqal, then have him shoot his plasma for no cost, which generates 1 AP, so if you have level 40 you should have 6 AP to start, so now you are at 7, then use the deathwhisper attack which costs no AP, but because its plasma generates 1 AP. Boom, 8 AP.

Buffs, e.g. Warp Speed, Air of Authority, Operative talent that grants +1 AP when over 100 PER, +2 AP on the first turn talent etc.

There is a permanent buff (I thing you can get it on Kiava Gamma with a dogmatic action) called Pray Against that gives +1, thankfully I lost only my other 2 such in Act 3 this one remained ... but you can re-apply it with ToyBox (in the state the game is in you will need it sooner or later anyway :P )
You get +1 at certain level around 25-ish
And there is an Exemplar Talent that gives you +2 (Eager for Battle, first turn only)
4+1+1+2 = 8 on your first turn, Bead of might should be applied for the rest of the battle.

EDIT: You actually get a second +1 AP around halfway of Exemplar so that and Eager for Battle talent will hive you 8 AP

[I'm A Distraction!]

Assuming they all work;
4 AP (Base)
1 AP (From 2nd Career)
1 AP (From 3rd Career)
1 AP (Pray Against, Dogmatic Option coming across the miniboss on Kieva Gamma)
2 AP (Eager For Battle, Exemplar Talent)

If you're an officer or hand out single target buffs, Arch Militants can give you a point of AP for using a single target ability on them.
Psyker Biomancer Power Warp Speed can give you another.

Doesn't seem to work for me. Pasqal with 4 AP, plus +2 AP on first turn, +1 from second tier class upgrades, +1 from third tier class upgrades. 8 AP, no visible buff listed on the character anywhere.

Lovely design, very functional things they designed for this game.
