It appears that my earlier post did not actually save.  The advice on the replicator tool was right on and is definitely a way to go when I want to create a group such as a platoon or an army.  Unfortunately it was not what I was looking for.

I next tried to save a scene in Poser with 4 of the same figure, posed in the same way, and then import that scene into Carrara 7 Pro.  The 4 figures importe ok, but only with 1 set of clothes.

So I ended up importing the same figure a 2nd time and positioning the new figure where I wanted it and rendering out.  The result was very good, however a lot of time was spent setting up the scene.
