As seen on Revok1.com
After months of planning, I regretfully have to announce “CLASH OF THE TITANS” is cancelled… or at least for the time being.
due to unforseen financial issues with the events proprieters I’ve decided rather than go forward on a diminished scale and do a half-assed event… To postpone it to a later date.
My sincerest apologies to the community as a whole, Especially those whom have booked travel. I promise to make this event still happen as it is looooong overdue… Except this time back on home turf bigger and better.
