The two projects currently up for patron support are both chugging along, with Tales of Zobeck having a small but not insurmountable lead toward an actual green light, go-sign, kickoff status.
And as usual, I can't resist jumping the design gun a little bit. The outline for the Tales of Zobeck source material has gone to the patrons, and both the senior patrons and writers like Richard Pett, Tim Connors, Jeff Grubb, and others are sharpening up pitches for the Tales anthology. I've got about a dozen already, and only the best will go on to be designed for the project. The patrons will see those and start judging them this weekend — and so can you, if you sign up today.
For Wrath of the River King, the project outline is available to patrons, and there's some discussion as well about level and Shadowfell. The early discussions often set the tone for where an adventure is headed. If you'd like an adventure that's more than just a set of 4E training wheels, and that tries to do something more challenging for experienced players, this is your project. Please donate and sign up today!

EEk!
No, seriously, the regular memberships are $25 for Tales and $30 for Wrath of the River King. The senior patron donations start around $75 and go up to $150 or $200.
I believe I paid $75, but my bad I cant work out whether I am a senior patron or not, or whether I should be involved in any Zobeck planning.
Technically I think I should be in at he beginning but I am confused.
(hey! This is my fault and not anyone elses!!)
Secret Senior Patron linkie
That would be the link where I stated that my lack of knowledge meant that I would allow others to discuss and then I would engage.D'oh! D'oh! D'oh!
Pass the Do-Nuts
I don't know what I click though to see it either.
Are you looking for the outline here or on the KQ forums?
Now I'm the one who is confused...
-Ben.
Now I *really* can't wait to see what everyone has cooked up.
There's a real range of styles and talents on display in the pitches so far. Maybe I'll go all meta on them after the voting is done, or pull an RPG Superstar recommendation on them. Hm.
;)
It only further proves the worth of the OD project as a whole.
Patrons can test their mettle with the big boys in the industry and see how they stack up. Where else do you get that kind of an opportunity?
Looking forward to the commentary, and Wolfgang I hope you do offer some critiques of the entries.
I'm signed up as a patron of Zobeck (I'm pretty sure), but I don't have access to the outline? Is something wrong on my end?
You should be all set.
Wolfgang, what do you mean by ''The outline for the Tales of Zobeck source material has gone to patrons...''??
Am I missing something?
Am I signed on properly?
Thanks in advance.

Ok, permissions are reset. My apologies for the delay, you'll see the outline and a few posts for Zobeck have crept onto the site before the commission is met.
On Friday we'll have the pitches to discuss, and voting on those starts next week.
Considering you are a one-man operation OD is great! Quality and customer service-wise.
Thank you.
Patrick
