(I actually have most of these cards, save for stuff like Sol Ring and Ancient Tomb.)
Anyhow, the deck is fun, I pull some wins against some decks. I wish there was a better way to exploit Jokulhaups and stuff like Obliterate, but so far, no great red enchantments.
I had a pretty good game against a Momir Vig player - turn one I won through Fumiko beatdown and finished it when he tapped out to revive and cast a Trygon Predator - which I unwillingly recruited for a ton of damage and killed him.
Second game ended when he had Momir and Keiga vs Izuka and Godo with Greaves on my side, and I Heat Shimmered the Keiga and sacced Iizuka for 12 points of Godo fun.
It's a fun deck, though I wish I could play it multiplayer somehow.
Akroma's Memorial gives all of your creatures vigilance (plus a few other abilities :wink:) so they can attack twice with Godo. Voyager Staff lets you reuse Godo (or Duplicant, or Solemn Simulacrum).

First game I won due to mana attrition on his side - Wasteland to his Selesnya Sanctuary, Oblivion Stone taking down his Grim Mono and Sol Ring, then he was on two lands while Godo beat with Tenza, Greaves, and Sword of Fire and Ice.
Second game was actually more fun. I beat some with the two Swords of Elements and Tenza, but my opponent cast Fracturing Gust and killed my Godo with his Akroma. I topdecked into a Duplicant so I bought myself some time while he rallied his defence - he had Genesis in the yard so I had to do act fast.
Luckily, I had a trick up my sleeve -
I floated EXACTLY 14 mana (I needed 8 to recast Godo) and then -- well, this.
I like Vintage, then Legacy or Elder Dragon Highlander, Cube, 40 card minimum decks, Pauper, casual
What about instead of having the ante cards banned the word "ante" would become a reminder thing like "Domain-" meaning: "Exile the top card of your library face down. Your opponent may play this card as though it had flash and without paying it's mana cost." It kind of keeps the spirit.

Empiryal Plate
Helm of Kaldra
Quietus Spike
Scythe of the Wretched
Shield of Kaldra
Sword of Kaldra
Tatsumasa, the Dragon's Fang
These are all great to get into play to attach to Godo or other creatures you control.
Thanks to Heroes of the Plane Studios for the amazing sig.
NO RUG: Primer
Tempo Thresh: Primer
Also, spells like Savage Beating and Relentless Assault work well with Godo.

But the pieces are Indestructible!

Wait you forgot to add Obliterate with mana floating to cast Ward of Bones. Personally I would use a Little Girl with all sorts of maniacal weaponry, in addition to the equipment you mentioned.

Dexterity Ha! that's why we have machines wAtTerRMElon and this egg thing.
