ARMOR PIECES FOR UNUSUAL CREATURES

Armor pieces for unusually big creatures, unusually little creatures, and non-humanoid creatures (such as horses) have different costs and weights from those given in Tables 5–7, 5–8, and 5– 9. Refer to the appropriate line in Table 6–8 on page 153 of the Core Rulebook and apply the multipliers to cost and weight. For animals with four or more legs, the броня for half of the legs counts as the leg броня piece, and the броня for the other half counts as the arm броня piece.

ARMOR AND ARMOR PIECE ПУНКТЫ ЗДОРОВЬЯ AND HARDNESS

To determine the пункты здоровья and hardness of your броня, use the hardness for the weakest material, and to determine пункты здоровья, add the total броня bonus (including the +1 for wearing a complete suit of броня) and multiply that value by 5. If you need to determine the hardness and пункты здоровья for a single броня piece, it has the hardness of its main material and пункты здоровья equal to its броня bonus (treat as +1 for броня pieces with a +0 броня bonus) × 5. Hardness for substances can be found in Table 7–13 on page 175 of the Core Rulebook.
