I kindda like the minis but haven't been able to find the stats for these ships anywhere. It looks like a frigate size model with torpedoes like the Cobra and perhaps a weapons battery.
Does anyone have the stats and points value for these models?
Cheers!

The falcion is part of the list for the armaggeddon sector list. Here come the stats. if a mod thinks this is breaking copyright he can delete it. Thanks.
FALCION CLASS ESCORT (35 pts)
Escort/1. Speed: 25, Turns 90, Armour 5+, Shields 1, turrets 1
- WB 30/3 LFR
- Prow torpedo (1 torpedo)
So, basically it is a slow brother of the sword and cobra combined. it is most useful acting in support of swords, more than on his own. Add a falcion to a sword squadron and it adds to the overall firepower of the formation AND gives you that nifty torpedo to destroy enemy ordenance. More a defensive feature than as an offensive weapon. At least I have used them in that way when testing them. Worked fine but as opposed to others I am not that fond of the model (you can check it in the online store) so I don't field it very often.
Hope that helped,
Xavi

Ah, that's interesting, I've a squadron of these, and I couldn't find the rules either. I like them bec they look as if they've been constructed as a stop-gap measure for the Armageddon war, a bit like escort carriers in WWII
