Nice deck I have a boros build as well but mine is different than yours.

If I was you I would do this:
-3 Godsend
-2 Blind Obedience
-2 Assemble
-1 Iroas
-1 Trooper
-4 Launch

+2 {Dictate of the Twin Gods} (shouldnt need explaining)
+2 {Skullcrack} (stop lifegain instant yes pls)
+2 {Chandra, Pyromaster} (shes very nice)
+1 {Aurelia's Fury} (gives aggro control at instant speed)
+2 {Legion's Initiative} (lets u hide ur guys.. Should b maindeck if ur running it)
+4 {Magma Jet} (damage with scry)

+4 {Prophetic Flamespeaker} (a thot for u to add in place of aegis and obedience both of which should be sided in as needed)


I would also reshape my sideboard to look like this:
2x {Launch the Fleet}
3x {Mizzium Mortars}
2x {Aegis of the Gods}
4x {Banishing Light} (these are crucial either in the main or the board... Great control at one white ala oblivion ring)
2x {Anger of the Gods}
2x {Blind Obedience}

Hopefully I give you some thoughts to marinate on

I'm liking most of what you put up. But pulling out 13 and adding 17. Did you forget to pull something else?

+4 for the flamespeaker was just a suggestion for a card to keep in mind. Notice I moved 2xAegis to the board but didnt add anything in its place. Thats where Id fill in flamespeaker.

The 4 was just a- and if u feel like cutting anything else- suggestion. Fitting in 2 for now in place of aegis seems like the right thing to do for a playtest.
