Creature hit points by location

[Coronoides]

I’m travelling and only have my Mythras PDF so I can’t check my library. For iterations of BRP that use hit locations, can anyone remind me how to calculate hit points by location for creature with non-humanoid hit locations? Can’t see an explanation in my Mythras. 

3 uses. 

Above or below average NPCs

non-humanoid PCs

creating new creatures

Thanks.

In Mythras, you take the creature's CON+SIZ as basis

In each location that is comparable to a human's arm the HP are ((basis / 5) - 1) (minimum 1)

In each location that is comparable to a humans' leg (or head) the HP are (basis/5)

in each location that is comparable to a human's abdomen the HP are (basis/5)+1

In each location that is comparable to a human's chest the HP are (basis5)+2

 

In BRP, you take the creature's (CON+SIZ)/2 as basis

In each location that is comparable to a human's arm the HP are 0.25 * basis

In each location that is comparable to a human's leg (or abdomen or head)  the HP are 0.33 * basis

In each location that is comparable to a human's chest the HP are 0.4 * basis

 

In addition, if a location is comparable to an insect's leg the HP are 0.16*basis

I hope it helps you
