If a knight has multiple manors, how does that affect the Harvest Resolution in the GPC? I assume that if you have more than one manor, that you would have a better chance of better Economic Circumstances, but I don't see anything in the book about it.

What I do is either:
1. Just add in L5 per extra manor, after all the harvest calculations a done.
This is called "farming" (out) the manor.
2. Add in whatever the annual income is just as a lump sum for the harvest income.
Don't do any improvements or anything to those manors. Just your own.
I just roll for each manor that the Knight has, so each one can produce a different income level.
Furthermore for those extra manors unless the Knight has his own vassal Knight present then he owes the actual lord of the land £4 a year to pay for a household Knight.
So that does mean that in a bad year the lord can demand more money from a manor than the manor actually made the knight.
Greg's method seems nicer to the players :)

Excellent! However, I have found that it gets tedious when you have several manors.

Yes, scutum fee.

Yes.

:o I hope the above corrects that. :d
