Ah, now I see where you are coming from. Yes, even with the expansion that added percentile based skills, 3rd edition seemed to have glossed over hand to hand combat. You might try to adapt the 4th edition melee rules. SP in 4th edition tends to be lower when using the character conversion guidelines, so you may need to increase damage slightly. The biggest challenge would be working out a way to interpret DoS and DoF in 3rd edition. This concept could be pulled directly from 4th edition and applied only to hand to hand if you wanted. Then you can use the martial combat skill and the associated specialties with no modifications.
