Update on new theories and testing on the effect of stars, testing has been much slower recently: (still need confirmation)

Formula seems to be √((number of stars)*(weapon scaling factor)) as the 1,4,9 was the result of testing on on the 12.7cm. 35.6cm seems to have scaling factor of 2 so the bonuses are are +1,+2,+5,+8. Other weapons untested.

As for where this goes in the damage formula, it's added to firepower stat so it's affected by all the other factors like engagement form, damage cap, etc. A lot more testing needed . Screws are slow to acquire and the event will start soon so it'll probably take some time.

Comptiq 2014Dec has a developer interview ( http://akankore.doorblog.jp/archives/41182839.html ) where he mentions more equipment will be added to the system, both improvements and upgrades. And that you can get screws from Fall event.
