I think playing the right kind of reanimation is important.  Cards like thrilling encore, reveillark, and dawn of the dead probably synergize a lot better with the deck than the reanimation cards that are currently in the list.  I don't want to go overboard but I do think a deck that specializes in putting creatures into the graveyard from the battlefield should have at least a few ways of getting back some of the more powerful bombs.

@GolgariFTW, I agree with what you are saying about the creatures that create tokens when they die being more effective in this deck than ETB token generators, although I still would like to keep a few ETB token generators just to get off the ground in the early game in case I stumble getting the sacrifice engine going.  Angel of invention seems to be a good enough include in this case, since it makes tokens and buffs the power and toughness of all the other tokens I will be generating.  I really like the list of cheap creatures you have included, do you think it is worth running Sun Titan if I add the "doomed" creatures?

Thanks for the comments!

I agree that the deck could use a bit more focus.  I think going all in on the aristocrats/sacrifice strategy would increase the power level of the deck significantly.  Having said that, I would still like to keep a minor life-gain subtheme in the deck, mainly to go off with the blood-bond combo outside of combat. But the life gain can be more incidental than deliberate, I do not want to dilute the token strategy too much.

Here are some of the cards I have prioritized adding based on all of your comments:
Elspeth, Sun's Champion
Skullclamp
Secure the Wastes
Twilight Drover
Martial Coup
Annointed Procession

If you have any other comments or suggestions for adds, especially with low CMC, I would appreciate it.

Thanks again for the advice

Self mill into big fatties

Please feel free to leave suggestions!  This one is sort of a work in progress, especially with the mana base.
