Strictly inferior to Flickering Ward. But I don't think that matters.
Well, Raise the Alarm exists, but so does Ashcoat Bear. I think I agree 2W would be fine, as would 1WW. It's the kind of thing that could be tweaked to fine-tune the colours' strength in limited, if we played enough draft/sealed to be able to do that.

I'm no good at judging power levels. But there have also been several 1C two 1/1 token spells, some with a bonus as well. My guess would be that this was better-than-average but within parameters, but that's just a guess, I'd think it needs playtesting.

The card reads very well, until you realize that the targets would have to be chosen before the sacrifices. It would feel better to make the sacrifice/s be an additional cost.

Yes, making it 3/3 ff for 4U rather than 2/2 ff for 3U makes it less useful as a graveyard hoser, but more useful as a creature.

But, OTOH, it's still a 3/3 flash flier; 5 seems reasonable.

Addition of mana costs is a tricky matter, as we know from the Generator MCM. With certain instants, you can get A+B for less than A+B (e.g. Prophetic Bolt = Impulse + Lightning Blast - 1 mana). It's rarer with creatures to find pure additions... I guess Flametongue Kavu = vanilla 4/2 + Flame Slash? Nekrataal - Terror implies a 2/1 first striker is 1B, which seems undercosted. But in white, the "army of little dudes" colour, I think getting 2 standard weenies for the sum of their costs is probably fine. I'll make it 1WW.

Correction to me last comment. This is Silvercoat Lion + Suntail Hawk, but less mana intensive. I think 1WW common would probably be fair.

I think it is, by a shade. Put it like this; this card is exactly Silvercoat Lion + Suntail Hawk. I lack hard evidence, but I think you don't generally get pure addition in cards without some kind of "cost".
On the other hand, 4 mana seems excessive. Perhaps 1WW or Uncommon at this cost? 1WW seems to get a 2/2 body with a bonus fairly regularly - http://bit.ly/dmYm7g

That's a very beefy body for the price, particularly given that it's usually only available on offense. The flavor text also highlights why Wizards thinks Dwarves are red, other than their usual dwelling spot.
Chris: Yeah, that's about how I was saying it in my head.
Jack: Yeah, I realised a little bit too late that "Sienira" (SEE-yen-EAR-uh / SYEN-ear-uh) is probably even less intuitive to spell than "Ravnica", which gave people no end of problems for years...

Hmm. The standard common vanilla for 3G is Order of the Sacred Bell at 4/3 (or some Portal things at 3/4), though. So do you think 3 (1 of it flying) is too good for 2W at common?
