Well, to start off, we should really have four types...
Defense (armor, personal defense weapons) <-- lowers casualties, very little "strategic" and plain damage
Assault (machine guns, staff weapons) <-- does more "strategic" damage as these weapons are great at obtaining & holding ground
Precision (Sniper rifles, death gliders kind of) <-- takes out enemies before you take fire from any other kind of weapon, does very little "strategic" damage
Heavy (Bombs, grenades...) <-- kills the most guys, and has a 1:1 ratio of damage to "strategic" damage
These are brief descriptions, and I will have more in general after this.

As for Replis and ascendeds, PM me and I'll add them to the post.
STRATEGIC DAMAGE
Strategic damage counts towards who wins a battle. That's all.
DEFENSE WEAPONS
Defense weapons subtract half of their value from the opponent's Strategic damage, and all of their value from the opponent's actual damage.
ASSAULT WEAPONS
Assault weapons add double their raw power as strategic damage, and half as raw damage.
PRECISION WEAPONS
Before the battle begins, for 1 turns worth of time, precision weapons attack opponents randomly, and completely disregard all defense weapons. Precision weapons contribute 1/5th of their raw power as strategic damage, and their raw power as raw damage.
HEAVY WEAPONS
Heavy weapons add double their raw power as plain damage, and half as strategic.
The player with the most strategic damage at the end wins the battle, but does not obviously take the least casualties or weapon damage.
As far as the actual formula of damage done to enemy weapon damage & killed troops, I'll leave that up to forum
UPGRADES
Each weapon type can be upgraded (by percents) to increase their specialty but lower their non-specialty. For instance, precision weapons could do an extra % of damage before the battle really begins, but lose that % as strategic damage, and once that reaches 0, take it from raw damage. Each upgrade would cost roughly 5 mil naq.
I know this is a giant change, but how do you guys like it?
