I'm in, just one question I know it says only Pendraken figures but in the open base category would it be ok to include a terrain piece from another manufacturer as long as all the figures are Pendraken?

Yep, that's fine.

Yep...me too :'(  Having another carck this weekend now I have daylight bulbs.

Just a quick point re daylight bulbs. (Presuming you're on about the photography rather than painting Gareth  :-\)
Quite a lot of digital cameras have colour compensating features already built in....So you can get rid of the 'orange' colour cast caused by old style 'filament' bulbs...and the greeny tint when you use the energy saving type.
Maybe worth folk checking their manuals. (Says someone who almost never checks manuals and just presses random buttons until he finds what he wants. ;) :P)

Most digitals have a manual white balance these days as well which can help a lot
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

I find daylight bulbs aren't that great for photography, not bright enough.

After my photo debacle in last years comp bought a light box kit from Amazon, bout £20.
