How about an Inquisition scenario? You'd have a civilization of witches who win if they convert the capitol city (Madrid, eg); the Spaniards win if they exterminate the witches.
The witches would have bizarre mostly stealth type attacks with unpredictable results...turning soldier units into cattle, cursing land so it yields no resources, or cursing units to paralyze them or give a combat penalty for a few rounds.
In more general terms, a scenario where the different civs have very different units, so that the idea of combat changes depending on what civ you're playing. This gets away from the "the Cubans are just like the Americans only with different city names and pictures" problem.

My current level: Deity once. Emperor numerous.
Scenarios are great - would love to see:
WWII: Everybody want to kick Adolph's butt - this scenario must be executed brilliantly.
Future battles in space: Space cities and all associated units. Must be great fun.
Namaste

I wouldn't mind something along those lines, except that it would feed into the popular misconception that the killing of "witches" was primarily an undertaking of the Catholic Inquisitions.
Fact is, more "witch" executions were the results of backwater secular courts, in areas where there was very limitted central or church authority. In those fewer cases where the Catholic Church was involved, the penalty was rarely death. Death penalty was usually limitted to unrepentant heretics.
Which isn't to say that lots of people used the Church as an excuse for their criminal hysteria, but to blame the Church for actions they would not condone is irresponsible.
By the way, I grew up Catholic but have been agnostic all my adult life, so I think my view is a fair one.

NO NONSENSE DINOSAUR scenarios!! No Creepy Fiction !
More scenarios that may also lend themselves to editing because they have GREAT UNITS and a GREAT MAP!
What I'd like:
1) Ancient - Greek Civ (both Alexander & Athens) and Roman Civ versus all those "other guys".
2) Medieval - Italian city states on verge of rennaisance and also the Crusades! Especially Crusades 1-4.
3) Modern - Napoleon! US Civil War and the World War 1 and 2 scenarios.
Please?
