Looking for 6mm figure recommendations to represent the red/black/yellow peoples of Barsoom. I think any of the 10mm orc lines out there will work pretty well for the green Barsoomians, even if they don't have the requisite number of arms.

Post this question on our 6mm Sci-fi site – Tactical Command … I'm sure some of the crew could help …

I will (member there already). Perhaps I should have asked about 6mm Barsoom ZOMBIES here on TMP to get a response. LOL!

6mm seems very small for a Barsoom game. Are you planning on introducing a lot of fliers?

At 10mm you could just about manage to superimpose one orc torso on top of another to create the four arm effect.

6mm seems the right scale to me for depicting some of the massed battles from the series, including the fliers, though they wouldn't be the main focus.

Then again, 6mm seems to me to be the right scale for all wargames. ;)
