I think you may have a different idea of what a high skill is than I do

Hmmm, not sure I'm following you here. Are you referring to Stormbringer 1-4 or Elric!/SB5? The later start off at a much higher skill pool.
OK, Stormbringer 5, from what I understand, has an extra attack at -30%, so someone with 130% can attack twice at 130% and 100%. Someone in RQ attackign twice at 100% needs a skill of 200%. Similarly, attacking 3 times needs a skill of 160% in SB (160%, 130%, 100%) but 300% in RQ (100/100/100).

So, someone reasonably powerful in SB who can attack with 3 or 4 automatic hits is at a lower skill level than the equivalent RQ character.
