I need help finishing this. I'm done with all my other spells. I need creatures now. I'm going to put 36 lands I just can't think of any good non-basic land to go in here from reason.

Gorzo

Land:
{Plains} :P
But seriously, {Emeria, the Sky Ruin}. Great for any mono-white deck. If you're running any metalcraft, you might as well swap a plains out for an {ancient den} too. And, since you are a mono deck, not worrying about color fixing lets you add some colorless lands without worry of missing the colors you need. Stuff like {Mikokoro, Center of the Sea}, {Temple of the False God}, {Mystifying Maze}, and similar colorless extra-effect lands are all well suited for mono color EDH decks like yours.

Creatures:
You have a good start on your creature base here. My main suggestion is more big fatties and big effect creatures. Any creature can benefit from your equipment, not just the little guys that get extra boosts. Sometimes a {Blazing Archon}, {Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite}, or {Angelic Arbitor} with Darksteel plate or all that other gear is going to be a more helpful ally than the little kor that would get +1/+1 and flying.
That's not to say those little equip boost kor don't have a place - low mana cost guys are nice. But commander is a slow format that loves big stuff. Even a deck that focuses on swarm tactics can find room for a nice, big, game-altering bomb!

Karrthus

I just forgot, I'm waiting on mail. I traded for a set of Urza lands for this to.

Karrthus

Finished it, finally. What do ya think Gorzo?

Gorzo

Looks pretty good! I like the creature base asdortment, solid land choices, and love the gear (especially all the swords and the kaldra set)

There are only two cards I urge you to add
- {enlightened tutor}. 1 mana to tutor any of your equipments to the top of your library. Will work nicely with your Mistveil plains too . "aww you destroyed that sword that was about to make me beat you? It's back in my library. And now its on top of it. And now its in my hand...and on the battlefield again. You miss it?"
- {Remember the fallen}. Along the same lines, great for an equip deck to get your 2 biggest threats back from the grave.

Unfortunately I have no idea what you can take out for either of those :P

Double-O-Scotch

You've got sword of ladles in there twice btw

What's a sword of ladles? Don't you love autocorrect?

I don't see any duplicates of any swords. Are you seeing
{Sword of Kaldra}
{Shield of Kaldra}
Maybe?

Very close at a glance.

Karrthus

It was a challenge getting the swords, seeing as how I didn't play when the original swords were printed. I actually had {Remember the Fallen} in my card pool for this deck, it was one of those cards I had to cut

{armored ascension}?
again, it was one of those cards that I had in the rough draft but ended up cutting. I mite put together my side board and add these cards to it though.
