zapyourtumor on RW Hammer feat. Kellan

No way Voldaren Thrillseeker is playable in hammer, 3 mana creature with an activitated ability that costs mana
Not running some combination of Ornithopter + Puresteel Paladin also feels like a big mistake here, since puresteel is just generically good and ornithopter allows for t2 combo kills (t1 ornithopter sigarda, t2 double hammer)
Stoneforge Mystic better than Open the Armory, id cut 2 open and 2 Kellan for 4 stoneforge if you can afford it.
Forge Anew is a decent 2 of as well. All in all I'd run less of the fling effects and fling creatures, since those are only good once you have a hammer attached. I'd focus on making the hammer equipping more consistent instead of playing those win more effects

Azoth2099 on Uril, the Aura Menace

Yeah in retrospect I'm not really sure why I recommended that one, also not sure how I forgot Open the Armory.
Lemme take some time to think about cuts, though.

Nice. Not sure if you're trying to keep this to a certain budget, but if you like the combos in your description so much as win-conditions, I'd include some stuff to find its components like Enlightened Tutor or maybe even Oswald Fiddlebender or Ring of Three Wishes (I'd replace Open the Armory with any of these). I'd probably change out Valor in Akros for Goldnight Commander. I know, the commander is a creature and thus easier to get rid of, but he's also a Soldier himself and that synergizes better with Myrel's secondary ability. Lastly, Cathars' Crusade; I just can't see a deck like this without one. But you probably have a good reason to not include it.
Coward_Token on Kellan Kombos?

Kellan, the Fae-Blooded is basically a Open the Armory in the Command Zone (you're allowed to make him skip going into Adventure-exile and instead just return to the C-Zone). This could let you reliably assemble infinitive combo pieces. What's some <=boros combos that requires 1-3 Auras/Equipment + Kellan and no other cards?
The main thing I've thought of myself is Breath of Fury + Captain's Claws-type Equipment/Elemental Mastery/Helm of the Host, but it's pretty janky since it still requires a bunch of conditions, see e.g.: https://commanderspellbook.com/combo/22741/ (Anduril, Flame of the West seems the most promising since you can probably catch out one or two people who don't have flying blockers).
Also this one for (rogue) cEDH: https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveEDH/comments/15s6jq6/kellan_the_faeblooded_birthright_boon_woe/jwkx0lt

My favourite is still Open the Armory because it depicts the Cathar wielding a man-sized crossbow that appears to shoot bear traps. I want a bear trap crossbow :(

Azoth2099 on Repanse De Lyonesse (Knight Tribal and Recursion)

Oi! Nice Commander pick, Mardu Knights are my jam.
If you're trying to give the decks some legs via recursion, Reanimator is the only way to go imho. Fortunately & are the perfect colors for that! Here's the Reanimator package that I typically start with if I'm building a deck in that style:
Animate Dead, Dance of the Dead, Necromancy, Reanimate, Entomb, Buried Alive, Final Parting, Phyrexian Reclamation & Sevinne's Reclamation are sick. There are also some pretty spicy loops that can be accomplished with things like Corpse Dance & Dread Return, but we can get into all of that if you decide to run Reanimator as a strategy for this build.
There's also some pretty great card draw options in this color combination that I think will do the deck some good. Necropotence, Black Market Connections, Esper Sentinel, Archivist of Oghma, Dark Confidant & Dark Tutelage all come to mind. Tectonic Reformation could provide some value here too.
I'd also also maybe cut down on some of those lands in favor of some more Mana Rocks. Talisman of Conviction, Talisman of Hierarchy, Springleaf Drum, Fellwar Stone & Chromatic Lantern would be good includes.
Tutors are expensive af, but there are a few nice choices that are very affordable right like Open the Armory, Wishclaw Talisman, Diabolic Intent, Diabolic Tutor, Gamble & Reckless Handling. Vampiric Tutor & Enlightened Tutor were just reprinted a little ago, so they're as cheap as they're going to get right now. I'm pretty sure Vampiric Tutor was like $90 a little bit ago, food for thought. Oh man, Stoneforge Mystic also exist, and is wonderful.
Some non-specific Tribal support like Shared Animosity, Mana Echoes & Coat of Arms, Cryptic Gateway & Vanquisher's Banner could also do stuff!
Lastly, a short list of neat Equipments you could consider are Conqueror's Flail, Hammer of Nazahn, Bloodforged Battle-Axe, Heartseeker, Masterwork of Ingenuity & Mask of Memory. I guess Halvar, God of Battle Flip is technically an Equipment card too?
Good luck in refining your list!
