RE: Point Values
In my experience it would actually be easiest to balance scenarios if most infantry are equal in points.

For example Volksgrenadiers are worth 5 vp, and regular US infantry are 3 vp. If both sides lose 100 sp, the Germans are 200 vp down compared with the Americans.
This makes balancing overly complicated because Volksgrenadiers are not necessarily performing better than regular US infantry. Morale is often just as decisive as "combat value" and this is not reflected in vp rating.
Thus the designer has the best idea about combat value, combined with morale that is allocated in a given scenario. Based on the quality of a side he can set the victory goals, which are often more ambitious for the stronger side. My advice would be to keep it simple.

Interesting dicussion though.
