Jim -
Don't have an address for Pendraken to hand, but have seen them plenty
of
times at the shows. Their ship range consists of 5 or 6 fleets, with
about
5 classes in each - around FT size, from destroyers up to big stuff.
Prices
are fairly cheap, but the models vary widely in design and quality - a
couple of the fleets are very nice, others much less so. They don't do
anything in the way of rules, and the ships are obviously designed to
sell
to FT players. Detail level is low/moderate - some of the designs are
quite
plain, but they are attractive in their own way; nice if well painted.
