Wow thanks for the Test of Faith suggestion! That might work well here.

Yeah the veterans are great, but I like the idea of the counters so that all my soldiers don't get weaker when one creature is destroyed. I'm considering taking out the field marshals for more things that trigger heroic like mortal's ardor or something like that. And I still might find some room for honor the pure. ;)
I had Preeminent captain in this deck at one time... I don't care much for his ability. Soldiers are cheap as it is, and most of the soldiers I have I don't want to attack with. Just use their abilities to buff my tokens. As for champion of the Parish, while he is a great card, I prefer the Gideon's Lawkeeper/Avenger combo. The Avenger can get counters just as fast, if not faster with the Lawkeeper out. Plus I get to tap opponent's creatures :)
Thanks! Much appreciated.
Yeah board wipe is potentially devastating, but most of the guys I play with don't play white so its not much of a concern. Still, thanks for the ghostway suggestion. I didn't even know about that card. Tokens would return to the battlefield as well I'm assuming?
I have 12 things that trigger. Launch the fleet triggers it as well. Phanlanx leader gives counters to all creatures, which is how the deck is built. Ajani and Mikaeus do the same thing.
Thanks for the input!

My thoughts exactly for the suggestions. However I prefer Tome Scour over Mind Sculpt or Breaking//Entering any day. Milling 5 for 1 blue is much more cost effective than 7 or 8 for 2CMC. Also another great low MC milling card is Mind Funeral. Sadly I only have one in my deck, but id put 4 in any Blue/Black Milling Deck.
