[PnP] Body (surface) percentages

[Alex Koponen]

Yes, the percentages seem reasonable (speaking as one who when I was a 
medic had to study such percentages for dealing with burns). However 
since P&P uses a generic hit point system those percentages should have 
little affect on the game. If  someone want to complicate the game to 
'add realism' to the injuries then the percentages would be useful.
