What weapons were the combatant's using? And were you using deceptive attack? The armor result is quite interesting.

A skill 12 character that outperforms a ST10 SK20 character (in a fight against a copy of that character) has a strength of about 40. Of course this also ignores the "Parrying Heavy Weapons" rule.
Wow that's a scary high number!
