What a surprise, I posted this thread well...six months ago...too bad it didnt get the reception it got this time. I wrote up a primer and everything. I don't know if this will be useful at all but here's the link for anyone who's interested. http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=75907
Thanks Miscalcul8edRisk! that was helpful and interesting. My list is a lot like yours, sans counterspells. I've been thinking of adding remands and one pact (can be tutored on combo turn). I'll continue to tweak it and post my decklist. I think it can have game against some real good decks in the format, also the element of suprise in game 1 should not be underestimated.
yeah - obviously I disagree with you, John. Spam Warning!.....Amazing - even in a forum where posts don't count, there's spam. That proves that getting rid of the post-count won't help getting rid of spam! Thans for this excellent example! - Craven
A 2nd Forbidden Orchard will protect the animated one.
In response to a creature removal spell, tap the 2nd orchard to generate a token and untap the first orchard. Now make infinite mana with the creature kill on the stack. This will also work against Krosan Grip on Intruder Alarm.
But you will have to animate the Orchard before playing the Alarm.
Using Dryad Arbor in your deck + a Sac Land in play.
In response to a creature removal spell, sac the SacLand and search out Dryad Arbor. This will untap your Orchard and you can go infinite.

I think this deck will want to run Idyllic Tutor to fetch Intruder Alarm. It dose add white to the mix but it might be worth looking into. Also, Petrified Field might be nice in here too.
Sterling Grove over Idyllic Tutor imo. Same mana cost net, and the grove may cost you a card, but adds a large degree of protection from both enchantment destruction and from hand disruption.
