Or are you taking the view that D&D HPs need to change, being generally too high for BRP?
I try to convert the creatures so that they conform to the normal scale of powers in d100 games. From this follows that I change the HP value of the creatures - so yes I do think the HPs needs to change, they are too high for BRP, IMO.
