As noted above, I made a mistake while tinkering with the deck prior to the tournament. One of the Redeemed Gunmen in the deck should be replaced with a fifth Student of the Dragon, and one of the Dragon Graveyards should be a second Stone Dolmens.

This list represents the actual contents of the deck as played.

For the most part the deck runs on Dragons hitters and Back for Seconds backed up by Guts and a mixed bag of tricks. It shields itself from some of the classic problems of a Comrades in Arms deck (Discerning Fire, Glimpse of Brief Eternity, etc.) by not having any hitters which share the deck's CiA designator.
