As in "Tugars":

In your opinion, who would be the likeliest manufacturer to go begging to?

Thanks.

I am hoping for something like these silk-clad guys, but as gorillas on lots and lots of steroids:

Would like to see them, but rather in scale for 10 mm figures (perhaps they would be 15 mm).

If used for novel type battles, you're going to want lots of figures and the only way to get them on the game table is in smaller scales.

Any scale! I'll then get the Civil War troops to go with them.

John,

My thoughts exactly. Someone make them, in whatever scale, and I'll buy whatever ACW figures and Medieval Russians are needed to go with them.

Since the scale will be relative, and based on whether full scale battles or skirmishes are desired, I guess I should have called this thread this instead:

"How About A Gorilla Horse Archer Horde?"

Any of you sculptors or manufacturers see this in your future?

40mm? Got to be Jim Bowen.

I think the idea of making them 40mm was so they'd be in the right scale compared to 25-8mm Rus and ACW…

Farstar,

That would be my first choice, so as to keep the humans in 25-28mm. However, if someone made Tugars in a different scale (I can't believe I am going to say this), I would consider getting humans in a different scale.

PS. I can't believe I said that.

RobWilde,

Thanks for the suggestion. I just sent Monolith/Graven Images an email. Waiting for a reply.

Tugars! Tugars! Tugars!

Even the reinvented POTA would work if done in 40mm and carried bows:
