Greetings.  I will have to double check but I think the BRF will tower side by side with the Copplestone ones.  The BFR are similar in thickness but the tallest 15mm on the market right now.  Both are wonderful lines but would be better in different units.

From what I understand, Old Glory 15s (which now make Black Raven) is a separate company from Old Glory 25s.  Old Glory UK is associated with Old Glory 25s, so I don't think OGUK would have Black Raven.

For other ideas, 15mm.co.uk's HOT & Tabletop lines, Magister Militum's Chariot & Blood Dawn lines, Mirliton,  Irregular, Essex & Splintered Light both have 15mm crossbow armed dwarves.   Irregular has a bow armed dwarf

And Pendraken's 10mm dwarves are of a similar size to Magister Militum's 15mm.
They also have bow-armed figures.
I don\'t know whether to be a good example or a horrible warning.

Hi lads .

Splinterredlightminis
    thanks for that might have to get 4 packs of bow armed dwarfs shipped over the pond from BR,If all else fails .
They would be in battle groups of 18-24 figs so I hope they will not stand out too much.

  Thanks for the heads up on other supplies I do have a few HOT & Tabletop lines,  and as for Magister Militum's Chariot & Blood Dawn lines they are spot on have a load of there orcs they are BIG 15mm but look great facing off against my Dwarfs (will post some pics when I can remember how to do it !  :?..The chariot min I use as cannon fodder as they are a bit smaller in size .
