This is getting a bit OT, but the issues with the ST table aren't purely about swing damage. I took a close look at what
Martial Arts says about boxing, and found it models lightweight boxing pretty well in terms of how many punches will be thrown before the fight is over. But try to model a heavyweight boxing match in
GURPS and its hard to avoid having the contestants knock each other out too fast, since damage increases faster than HP as ST increases.
