Aurelia is a monster and she can turn a couple aggro creatures into a board threatening to end the game. With a little boost to her power and toughness ( Balefire Liege , Godsend , etc.), she can deal lethal commander damage in one or two turns.

The deck isn't green, as you may have noticed, so the ramp is entirely artifact. The mana myr and the boros mana rocks help me compete with cultivate and the like, but ramp isn't really the goal of the deck. All I need to do is get to 6 mana and I'm in business.

If Aurelia gets taken out, I still have a list full of very strong aggressive creatures who just lose a little effectiveness. That said, there's a large suite of artifacts and creatures to make her hard to get rid of. Darksteel Plate, Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Boros Charm and Elspeth, Knight-Errant can all protect her from "destroy" removal, Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots keep her safe from targeted exile, and Legion's Initiative can even keep my board safe from the dreaded Cyclonic Rift.

Let me know what you think! The list isn't final yet so suggestions are appreciated.
