I just want to see if I have this correct - since I have made the decision to give a very light touch to Economics (see my other post) with the option of delving deeper later.

Under the Winter Phase Synopis - Step 4 Check Economic Circumstances from the Great Pendragon Campaign.

Before the Rolls
Let's assume that there is no cures on the manor; the peasants are happy and there is no pestilence nor has the land been raided.

My Knight PC's wife has a STEWARDSHIP of 15 and there is a happy Brownie in residence (how could I resist)

1. I roll for Bad Weather and get a 14
2. Using the Double D20 rules I roll and get an 11 - so a SUCESS on the Harvest Resolution Table.
3. I roll the wife's Stewardship roll against a 17 (15 modified by +2 due to the happy Brownie (where does this Brownie come from - I hope there are rules later in the GPC that I have not gotten to yet)
4. Results:
CRITICAL - when cross referenced with the Bad Weather Result of SUCCESS = Rich (So does that mean the Manor generates 9L to 12L that year - a "profit" of 3L to 6L after the 6L upkeep?
SUCCESS - when cross referenced witht the Bad Weather Result of SUCCESS = Normal ( so 6L and no more money or less money)
FAILURE - A POOR Result - the manor genrates 3-5L that year and the knight looks a bit shabby and worse for wear
FUMBLE - IMPOVERSHED - things are bad - bearly enough money to survive and the squire leaves (possibly taking the Brownie with him...)

Did I get this right? If so let me know - if not could one of you more experienced players point out where I went wrong.

Thanks for all your help

The brownie shows up much later, asking that his good favors be returned

"There is this guy called the King of the Flesh who is taking over its homeland, see?
"ever seen your own Wasteland?
"it's time to come with me
"yes, you can get your friends...
"quickly"
