If you're looking outside standard, Kinsbaile Cavalier gives all your Knights double strike, and Rebuff the Wicked stops removal efficiently. Whispersilk Cloak and Lightning Greaves can also protect your Exemplars from Oblivion Rings and whatnot.

Tezzeret the Seeker would be a nice addition to the deck, and Mishra could also speed the deck along.
Rukh Egg is a bit like Roc Egg, I think. You could add a whole bunch of Tremor/Earthquake type spells...
Why the Rage Nimbus? Flame Slashes would fit in nicely too...
Just an idea I'd like to throw out there... Pennon Blade was made for Rapacious One...
If you think about it, it' not as bad as it seems-you still have the eight Words to fall back on. If anything, I'd like more Leveler-type effects, but Arc-Slogger is red.
It's really a deck where I try unconventional tactics - but I was thinking of all those cards at some point. Thanks for the ideas anyway.
Not the point of the deck- - you use the Leveler to exile your library, then selectively pick out your draws using Riftsweepers and Mirrors of Fate.
The missing cards are: 4 Last Chance 4 Warrior's Oath 4 Slaughter Pact
I like this idea-Turn to Mist would be another good one to use. Ghostway can hit all your creatures at the same time.
Cho-Manno, Revolutionary would also be a good choice for the deck, along with Shield of Kaldra or Indestructibility.
This deck looks fairly well thought out - maybe side-board a fog or two for those aggro decks?
Vedalken Engineer can help you activate those high costs...
http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=88117 Note that it focuses more on double strike and pushing through early damage than anything else...
I wouldn't bother playing the Bull Cerodon-the red/white Hatchling is probably a better choice for a deck like this. Otherwise it looks good - if you want to focus more on speed, red/white are prime beatdown colours-I posted my own Boros deck if you need ideas.
Join the Ranks is already in - I used to main-deck the Evangels, but figured out Ghostway does the same, as well as resetting all your Allies, triggering all at the same time.
The thing is that the deck plays really low-cost, with everything above 3 mana having a cheaper alternate cost. This allows me to trim lands in the deck while still maintaining a playable base.
What about splashing black for Pillory of the Sleepless and a few more win conditions?
Good point, thanks - I actually misread Stifle as only activated. I might also see if I can add Illusions of Mediocrity/Grandeur in there somewhere...
I'm not too big a fan of assassinate, I'm not sure how much you need it - If I were you, I'd start with those; with Gauntlets and Bubbling muck you'd be pretty fast, so you could probably get away with cutting out some lands. Leechridden Swamp counts as a Swamp, and will also fill the role of the Marshes. Finally, I would think about replacing the Vampire Aristocrat or Child of Night with Nirkana Cutthroat - these guys are worth it almost every draw.
