Classic Traveller to RuneQuest type percentage skills. The basic conversion is
15% skill level for each level of Traveller skill level, with some skills being
broken down further. Weapons skills are divided into energy (denoted by (e) in
the listings), and projectile (denoted by (p) in the listings).
