What is the point of the weapons in Clue?

They serve as a reminder and visual cue of where that weapon was last in terms of questioning. Say a buddy moves the rope to the Billiard room, next time you're asking a question you will see it in the Billiard Room and remember he asked that.

Why is Miss Scarlet first in clue?

I asked Google why Miss Scarlet (often, but not during the years when I played Clue, spelled Miss Scarlett) rolls first. A message board gave me a joking answer: “She goes first because the other suspect want her in front of them. The other women don't trust her, and the men want to watch her backside.”
