Let's do some freaken math here.
Let's say at the very least you have 4 untapped forests. To play this you would need 3 creatures. But once you do your creatures are all tapped. Oh great... so i need 4 creatures to make this work... but that would only mean it's an overcosted giant growth... fail...
Now let's say you have 5 untapped mana. You only need 2 creatures but to balance things out just like the previous example, you have 4 creatures. BUT WAIT. Isn't overrun 5 mana too? Plus i can attack with those 4 creatures too! another fail...
Any more examples with more than 4 mana is a fail because you're either losing 1-2 creatures to attack or are overpaying a lesser effect card (the +3/+3 BUT no trample) while you've could've just played overrun and have 1 to 2 extra creatures to attack with PLUS trample.
So overall this card is best used with a deck that uses 4 mana or less and can get lots of tokens by the time you get 4 mana. Otherwise it's a piece of Overwhelm... (see all)

First use Life and Limb to turn all your lands into creatures to help pay the convo- waaait..

For a card called Overwhelm, this is pretty underwhelming.

Oh man, I didn't realize it was a sorcery instead of an instant. Yikes.
