The Ral Partha minis I ordered recently are really good. As mentioned, hardly any clean up.

I have photos of quite a few 15mm/18mm fantasy miniatures on my thread here - http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=83555.0 - including mammoths with Copplestone barbarians on page 10.
This was my reply to a question about matching figures on the same thread.
The Donnington are true 15mm (base to eye) but as they are civilians they do not need to be standing next to the reat of the figures so it does not bother me.
Nearly all of mine are large 15s (16mm to 18mm base to eye). I use-
Eureka fantasy 18mm (the Men of Grandeur are high middle age)
Blood Dawn (Magister Militum) 18mm
Blue Moon Manufacturing ancients 18mm
Demonworld (Ral Partha Europe) normal figures are 16mm or 17mm. Characters/heros are 17mm or 18mm.
Splintered Light miniatures 17mm
and of course Copplestone.
I have heard that the Black Raven Foundry miniatures are also big but i do not have any and i am waiting for some from Khurusan at the moment.
Cheers
Robert

Theres a scale difference in the donnington range. The older ones are true 15mm, but the 'New Era' are much larger.

  Dragon Rampant has a direct lineage from Ral Partha's Chaos Wars. The rules have very similar concepts although several mechanics have been upgraded, tweaked or improved. I really like Chaos Wars. Dragon Rampant does some things better. CW will handle larger armies. I wish DR would cover artillery and larger units. Really good set of rules!

Thanks.
