Except in that unsuccessful attempt to be the RQ3
rules, Mythworld.  All animals in the bestiary have
figures for natural armor absorption points in impale,
slash, and crush damage.

Indeed, the Mythworld Bestiary is probably the only
game resource to be used by a major museum to prepare
an exhibit (Dallas Museum of Natural History, 1980,
"Animal Olympics") because speeds and jumping
distances are in real dimensions.  It also includes
life-cycle chronology, population densities, territory
size, etc. as well as the expected data on hit
locations and points, natural weapons, and such.
