    How it works

    Before you start

    You control at least one additional nontoken Soldier.

    Steps

    Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing another nontoken Soldier, adding {C}{C}. The Soldier dies, triggering Seige Veteran and Nim Deathmantle. Resolve the Siege Veteran trigger, creating a 1/1 Soldier artifact creature token. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing the Soldier, adding {C}{C}. Resolve the Nim Deathmantle trigger from step 2, causing you to pay {4} to return the nontoken Soldier from your graveyard to the battlefield, and attach Nim Deathmantle to it. Repeat.
