Deck discussion for Modern equipment warmachines

As strange as it may sound I'm not entirely sure if "Auriok Steelshaper" is necessary in this deck. "Puresteel Paladin" does basically the same when metalcraft is active and it allows you to draw a card when you play an equipment thus making each equipment a cantrip. The Steelshaper only lowers the costs by {1} (which should be enough in most cases) but if you wan to use it's ability to strengthen your soldiers this will draw equipment you might need on other places. If you want the +1/+1 bonus try "Stone Haven Outfitter" as he doesn't need to be equipped for that.

Some further suggestions:
Auriok Sunchaser ...becomes a 3/3 flying when you have more than 3 artifacts on the field (metalcraft)
Shuko ...cc0, equip 1, +1/+0 equipment, helps to quickly activate metalcraft or to increase the number of artifacts on the field
Cranial Plating ...cc2, equip 1 (forget about the {B}{B} this would only allow you to equip this with instant speed), the equipped creature gets +X/+0 where X is the number of artifacts you control. This can make even a simple "Ornithopter" into a deadly beater.
Infiltration Lens ...cc1, equip 1, draw 2 cards if the equipped creature gets blocked. Another of those cards I love as it puts a tough choice on your opponent: Block and let you draw cards (which is never good for him) or take the damage?
Dispatch ...cc1, tap target creature, when metalcraft is active exile it instead. A simple and cheap but powerful removal without the drawback of "Path to Exile"
Darksteel Citadel ...indestructible artifact land that produces colourless mana and increases the artefact count

As for "Lightning Greaves" those are a double-edged sword here. On the one hand it stops your opponent from casting spells on the equipped creature on the other hand it also stops you from equipping new equipment onto this creature. If you want some protective equipment try "Swiftfoot Boots" or "Mask of Avacyn"

It's true, it can be a disadvantage.
