Hey guys,

So for those that do not know me, my name is Aaron K. Fishkow. I run The Conflict GT in New York, one of the first events of the year on Games Workhops Circuit.

I have been pretty busy since this years Conflict GT which was held Jan 16-17th.

Normally I get a chance to relax a bit after an event, but through a meeting at this years Conflict and though many phone conversation and emails the past three weeks, I am proud to announce that The Conflict GT will be held along side Wizard World's Comic Con Tour across North America!

If you do not know me personally, I want you all to know that I will continue my hard work to give back to the gaming community and to spread our love of this hobby to other cities, its gamers, and to a whole new community of Comic Con fans around the country...and Canada!

Our first event is this March in Toronto followed by Anaheim and Philadelphia. I will try to keep everyone updated but you can see the announcement below as well has http://www.wizardworld.com/
