Talara's Battalion in 3-color zoo

A rgw zoo deck won states in Vermont-his list is here: http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/deck/58

Does anyone think Talara's Battalion could find a home in a deck like this? Possibly with manamorphose helping to make turn 2 battalions and turn 3 thoctars happen, possibly with cards like nettle sentinel or wild nacatl to make the battalion better. I'm not sure what a decklist for this would look like, I'll post one when I come up with it.

So, basically, you want this deck minus blue, plus red? Switch out war monks for thoctars, etc.?

Yes

If you cut the Wooded Bastions you can slide 4 Demigod in. It's probably a crime to play 4 Ranger of Eos and no Burrenton Forge-Tenders anywhere. The more I look at this the more reasonable it starts to look. Except for the Spark Elementals, of course.
