Deck discussion for Modern White Aggro

Just little things here and there:

Tribal decks feast off of the ability to build on a specific type of creature, (the exception for soldiers being Hero of Bladehold for obvious reasons.) Though your title is soldiers, you seem to be smashed between soldier, and human tribal abilities. Doomsayer, though efficient at boosting up Champion of the Parish, isn't a soldier himself, nor are the tokens he makes. Just as Transient Master, Mikeaus the Lunarch, and Mirran Crusader are not soldiers either, though being human.

If I were to work on the creature list, I would say:
For all: Adaptive Automaton, add. Add more Honor of the pure. Mono white swarm based decks cannot get enough of them! Remove Ajani, he is underpowered and takes up a valuable card slot. (I like him too, just never has been actually worthwhile) Oh, If you have a few Cavern of Souls, those are killer too.

Option 1: Human. Double Champions of the Parish, throw in four Gather Townsfolk, possibly an Increasing Devotion as the killer. Keeping Thraben doomsayer and Mirran Crusader, but likely scrapping Hero of Bladehold, field Marshal, and the Elspeths too. Transient Master generally requires a huge ramp into him to make him worthwhile, and he could easily be Exiled even after reaching indestructibility.

Option 2: Soldiers. This would suggest taking out Mikeaus(?), Transient, Crusader, and Thraben Doomsayer in favor of more Drop One's, such as Champion, Loyal Sentry, or even (Doomed Traveler/Boros Elite?) More Preeminent Captains, a second Hero of Bladehold, and more Field Marshalls.

I built a deck much like this one, maybe it'll help make sense of where I am coming from.

thank you for the suggestions. I plan on testing this deck the way it is and then go from there. I have a nice devour deck built the same way with trial and error which ended up amazing apart from my desire of doubling season. (will be posting the deck soon)

Elspeth, Knight-Errant is Modern legal. The only banned planeswalker in any format is Mind Sculptor.

1. This is a modern deck, not extended. So it wouldn't matter anyway. 2. As of June 18th, 2010 the Extended format is limited to the previous 4 years of magic (much like how Standard is the previous 2 years). So with the release of Return to Ravnica block, Elspeth Knight-Errant along with the rest of Shards of Alara block are no longer in this parameter.
tl;dr= Shards is not extended legal anymore.
