To me balanced should mean that if you have a 100 pt tank I should be able to buy 5 20 point tankbusters to beat it from any army as an example. If I spend those 100 pts on riflemen than I get ran over. Every list does not need to be balanced with every other list. There just needs to be no list from one army that doesn't have a list from every other army that is equal to it. Part of the game is dreaming up the list that beat what the other guy keeps bringing.
