Holy Stinking Snot Batman

In my ever continuing quest to convert all of my 3e GURPS characters to 4e standards I have to recreate the racial statistics of some non-human races.  Tonight was the Centaur from Fantasy Folk.

Because of the differences in how the various editions handle ST, the Centaur goes from a ST 13 with a split ST Advantage to get a horse body with a ST of 26.  With all the other things added on, a 3e Centaur was 55 points.

The new ST rules you buy a ST of 26 and take "Weak Arms" to get that ST 13 in the torso.  When I was finished it comes to 143 points!  OUCH!
