Why do we need a scale for this situation ? Say our hero has close combat 5M
If we want him to be a challenge we make him of equal strength. If we want him to be a hard nut we give him a small advantage say +5 = 10M. If we want him to predominate we will add +20= 5M2. Etc.

Story, not numbers !
If all thats challenging, are foes with bigger ratings you´re doing
something wrong IMO. This is not D&D !
