Invaders
These Colours Don't Run
Brighter Than a Thousand Suns
The Pilgrim
The Longest Day
Out of the Shadows
The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
For the Greater Good of God
Lord of Light
Children of the Damned
22 Acacia Avenue
Run to the Hills
Iron Maiden (this is cheating, I know, but I'm trying to keep things realistic here!!)
The Prisoner
The Number of the Beast
Hallowed Be Thy Name
 
I'm not sure if I should make it a realistic setlist, or use all the songs on both albums, so I'll just do both. Seeing as my two favorites are AMoLaD and TFF, on my "realistic" list, a few songs will be omitted since 20 reunion-length songs is not going to happen.

Realistic:
1. Intro: Satellite 15
2. The Final Frontier
3. El Dorado
4. The Pilgrim
5. The Longest Day
6. The Talisman
7. The Man Who Would Be King
8. Coming Home
9. Brighter Than a Thousand Suns
10. When the Wild Wind Blows
11. Lord of Light
12. The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
13. These Colours Don't Run
(14. Iron Maiden)
-------------------------------------
15. Isle of Avalon
16. Starblind
17. For the Greater Good of God
18. The Legacy

I didn't know whether to include Iron Maiden, so I put it in parentheses.

Now, this is 134 minutes (with Iron Maiden included), which is already (I think) a pretty lengthy setlist, and it omits Different World, Out of the Shadows, Mother of Mercy, and The Alchemist. But if I were to include them it would look like this:

Not at all realistic:
1. Intro: Satellite 15
2. The Final Frontier
3. El Dorado
4. The Pilgrim
5. The Longest Day
6. Mother of Mercy
7. The Talisman
8. The Man Who Would Be King
9. The Alchemist
10. Coming Home
11. Brighter Than a Thousand Suns
12. When the Wild Wind Blows
13. Out of the Shadows
14. Lord of Light
15. The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
16. Different World
17. These Colours Don't Run
(18. Iron Maiden)
-------------------------------------
19. Isle of Avalon
20. Starblind
21. For the Greater Good of God
22. The Legacy

Obviously at 153 minutes this setlist is ridiculously unrealistic. But it was fun to make!

2) Ghost of the Navigator
3) The Mercenary
4) Heaven Can Wait
5) Brave New World

9) The Nomad
10) Deja-vu
11) Sea of Madness
12) Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner

15) (Iron Maiden? Cheating?)

First thought when I read the thread title was, "or what?"

Second thought was, "why not?"

Third thought is, this is not so much a setlist, but rather a playlist.

1. Different World
2. Lord of the Flies
3. Fortunes of War
4. Brighter than a Thousand Suns
5. The Edge of Darkness
6. The Longest Day
7. These Colours Don't Run
8. Blood on the World's Hands
9. The Aftermath
10. Out of the Shadows
11. The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
12. For the Greater Good of God
13. Sign of the Cross
14. The Legacy
15. I Live My Way
16. Man on the Edge

Yeah, I know I Live My Way is a B-Side... but it fits in pretty well.
 
Here is my dream set idea:

Play The Number of the Beast album in its entirety to open the show. Then one song from each of the other albums...Running Free, Wrathchild, Trooper, Aces High, ect.

The 3 song encore would be covers of other metal bands. Unexpected stuff like Ozzy (Mr. Crowley?...major whoa factor), Queensryche (hmmm, I guess Queen of the Ryche sans falsetto vocal would work), and something else...insert your favorite song for Maiden to cover here.
 
Really, I wouldn't want any Maiden concert time wasted with covers. They've got a big enough selection to stick with their own material.
