I can't think of any reason why a "historical" scenario could not go through the H2H process? :chin:
The scenario developer could emphasize that the depicted battle is "historical"... and as a consequence... "unbalanced"... so play testers would be urged to NOT evaluate "balance"... and in the "balance" evaluation category, maybe rate it as a "8"?
Another possibility... adjust the victory conditions so that both sides had "some" chance of either a "Draw" or "Minor Victory?" So, if "historically", a specific side captured an objective during that battle... maybe if the defender can retain that objective... with minimum casualties... a "Draw" or "Minor Victory" is possible?
Thinking out loud here? :chin:
I believe that the majority of "historical" scenarios are tested with the developers' "regular" opponents... and than uploaded into the dbase after a few rounds of play testing?
