How about damage strength?  Ie rifles against tanks aren't much good.   In
some games they have damage and invulnerability rating.  If the
invulnerability rating of the defense is higher than the damage rating on
the attack you get a large reduction of either to 'to hit' or to 'damage',
per point of difference.  Perhaps this is already in Xconq?
