It is probably i the Megaversial Builder Sourcebook.
(it's one of those gamebooks that I don't know if Its in storage or was sold off. So I'm going to let someone else confirm or not.)

The other option is the RCB1 or the RCB1r. But if it's RT specific then it would be in RCB1.

But really....if a dragon, or any other COM/SN goes to a low PPE environment then they turn into HP/SDC beings. Like in the PF books.

Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

You were probably remembering PFRPG Dragons & Gods pg 18-19 - MDC to SDC Conversion
PFRPG D&G pg 19 wrote:In a mega-damage world that coexists in an S.D.C. world and does not have vast mystic energy permeating the planet, like Robotech®, the dragon (and gods) should be mega-damage beings, but reduce their M.D.C. by 25-50%, whichever seems most balanced and appropriate. This should make an adult dragon about equal to a heavily armored mecha unit. In this environment it may be advisable to reduce P.P.E. and I.S.P. by 50% as well. On the other hand, some Game Masters who want highpowered nemeses should leave these characters at full MegaDamage strength.
DB7 Megaverse Builder has a couple ways of doing it but pretty loosey-goosey as it basically refers back to RCB1.
