I want to start a campaign, so I'll turn it down to 150-point Patrolmen, and they will be plenty capable. I also learned how level 15 in primary skills affected shipboard actions, and now I know how likely it is that they'll be able to handle things with skills that high (they can take insane risks and be nearly assured of success).

For regular skills, that is handled with appropriate modifiers. For combat its a bit more complicated, and thats all Im really looking to do here. I believe that gurps can handle high skill levels pretty easily, Im just tryin got figure out what the Bad Guys Attack,defense, ST and DR should be if I know the charachters Attack, Defense, ST and DR and How tough I want the combat to be.
