**********Additional Comments**********

 

Other cards that go well with this archetype are other equip spells like United We Stand, 1 or 2 Supervise, Autonomous Action Unit, Axe of Despair, etc. Also Hidden Armory to search for it. Evocator Chevalier and a few Gemini monsters may be good here as well with all the equip spells running about. You would also run a lower monster count and not too many equip spells since there are so many ways to search for them or recycle them from your graveyard.

 

Tell me what you guys think :) Criticism and nice comments welcome.

Any comments, suggestions, ratings? :O

I like the idea of an equip-based swarm deck, and the monsters are pretty interesting so far. "Joane" could stand to lose about 100-200 base ATK, some more spells and equip cards would be fantastic, "Revival of Glory" could stand to be beefed up a little, and "Ambush Attack" should have some sort of cost, or at least a steeper activation condition, just to balance it a little.

 

All in all, these are some really cool ideas.

Thanks for the input :), I agree with Joane that it should be a bit weaker, as it seems too strong. Revival of Glory should be fine as it is since many of the monsters can Special Summon if there is a "Syril Knight" present so there isn't much need for the Normal Summon that turn. I'll add a small LP cost to the Ambush Attack and add some more equip spells.
