After playing through the first game for 20 times; no joke; I just still do not get what Havelock wanted to do. He wanted to kill Corvo, become Lord Regent and what else? What did he want to do with Emily?

He wanted to poison Corvo and hand over his body for the reward. But then Samuel intervenes and your put on a raft to freedom. Then Havelock, Pendleton, Martin were then to manipulate Emily over the years so that while she is still on the throne, she's only puppet. They expected her to reign for 60-70 years, and so even after the Loyalists are dead their vision will survive through her. Another reason they wanted Corvo out of the picture was because they would never be able to control Emily with him around. I don't think Havelock ever planned to kill Pendleton and Martin; he was just scared, full of guilt, trying to tie off loose ends etc. He mentions that he was lacking a counter move and so he was just acting impulsively as things got progressively worse, all while knowing Corvo will be coming for him.
