4xBoros Recruit -cant say anthing about him he's a solid 1 drop

4x Ashling'sPrerogative -i am assuming this is in there for the recent combo. frankly i don't see using 3 cards for what 2 can do. emblem of the firemind and kismit

4xAmulet of Vigor -see above

4xShields of Velis Vel -part of your control aspect i get that

2x Suleiman's Legacy -ok i get the idea but why this one, its a 1 time use, if your going to imprint the shields onto the scepter, you want something that can destroy the changed creatures each turn, lose this and up the spirit mirror to 4

1x King Suleiman --a 1/1 that can kill a creature if you change it first. to situational, l would lose this for elightned tutor or idyllic tutor to find any of your enchantments

2x Spirit Mirror -see above, up to 4

1x Darien King of Kjeldor -for a card that seems to be a major part of the wincon why only 1 copy.

2x Pandemonium -keep

4x Soul Warden -key to inifinte life

2xIsochron Scepter -a necessary part of the shield combo so I guess we can keep though I would try to add lightning helix to the mix somehow maybe the spellbinder

2x Goblin Bombardment -part of the combo so keep

2x Knighthood -if your shields combo works you don't need first strike, replace these with more darien

3xSpellbinder -you have no evasive capabilies, most smart opponents will block the creature with spellbinder, not to mention you will most likely imporint it with savage beating and use the extra attack portion (since the double strike would be pointless) since this is a secondary win con I see no point is not playing savage from hand. I would replace this with lightning helix as another alternative to shields for the scepters as will as some early removal while you get things in place

3x Savage Beating -cut it down to 2 add another tutor, its more important to get your combos out rather then the extra attack turn

I think you need to add some burn and whites control methods to help by time in the early game since it will take awhile to get darien out, ashling and vigor seem the most out of place in the deck and don't do as much as the other 2 combos. so while it is a good combo I would look at removing them

What you are really missing in this deck is consistency. Many of your key cards in the deck you only have 1-2 of. Like Gericault said, you need some control and burn, maybe a bit of Silence and Lightning Bolts. Red/White decks are not the easiest to pull off, given that both colors are completely opposite to the other. You have a nice concept though, just throw some consistency in there and I think you have a deck.

Also, Pandemonium can be dangerous to you, depending on what type of deck you're going against. You could try Electropotence. It does the same thing, but it only works for you. The only downside is you have to pay 2R to activate it.

I get that, but if I have to pay then I cannot perform endless soliders, I can still gain endless life with goblin bombardment. I hold pandemonium till I can pull off the combo though

Electropotence is horrible compared to Pandemonium.

Hmm.. Then you might consider Demistify or something to get rid of it after you use it for your combo.
