Trying to make this into a full Giant Tribal, that means no lieges, no Avatars and no Incarnations etc. I'll edit and post as I go along, but I've just recently reacquired a copy of Deep-Slumber Titan that i would absolutely love to get a kick out of.
Rules for my deck:
No counterspells (Permission...it's a hassle, and it is boring for the guy on the receiving end. EDH is all about flair, fun and some dumb, comical moments to me. Restricting opponents on what they can do in their deck ain't gonna be fun for them.)
Shun the mass 'destroy' spells - Blowing things up ain't my idea of 'fun'. I wouldn't like anyone to do that to my decks, so I'd try not to do that to others too. I guess mass burn is fine, since they usually take tons of mana to fire up, therefore giving your opponents a chance, but *** and DoJ types are strictly off my list.
As 'giant-like' as possible - The typical response I get when I reveal Ruhan as a general is "oh..here comes another voltron...." Well, sure, the deck runs equipments, but not the ones you'll usually see in a voltron. Giants love clubs and axes. They don't do swords as far as I know, so that's the reason i'm not playing stuff like Jitte, SoFI, SoFF etc. Whispersilk Cloak and the like too - just ain't in their blood to sneak around.
So yea, here it is - my attempt at a fun, non-typical Ruhan that hits hard but lets everyone take a look at how these big and dumb guys are.
P.S - they aren't quite as dumb as one might think - i've won quite a few games with this deck so far, so I'd say it's still pretty solid - of course once everyone whips out tourney level decks, you can forget about doing anything but as far as casual goes, this is pretty solid from my experience.

Tenza, Godo's Maul is a very giant-y weapon. It's obviously great with Ruhan, and not bad on many of the other red giants as well.
