Two tubes doubles the feedback C, so mo' tubes means less vhf stability.  
However, since doubling the number of tubes halves the RL, double the 
C-tune is needed to maintain the same Q.  it should be do-able to build a 
10, 811A g-g amplifier -- provided one had at least 200W to drive it and 
enough C-tune to make c. 400-ohms of Xc at the lowest frequency.  
Expected anode current would be c. 2A.  The anode supply could be 
hex-tupler operating directly from the 240VAC mains, so the heaviest 
component would be the 250w filament transformer.
