Personal Preferences
What type of scenario do you, on a personal basis, prefer? The all out science fiction (Wing Commander, Heavy Metal, Babylon 5, etc.), historically intricate scenarios (Red Front, Cruel Sea, Raging Dragon, etc.), alternate history (Blood & Iron, American Empire, etc.) or fantasy (Moria, Lord of the Rings, Underdark, etc.)?

I prefer historical scenarios, but I'll play and enjoy any well made scenario.

It's history for moi.
I just wish that I had more control over some of the Civ2 characteristics.

Ditto. 
I'm playing around with making a half-dozen or so - all sci fi.

All I play is historical scenarios. I don't have any scenarios on my hard drive that are not historical. I'll look at any scenario, and I might even play another type once or twice but they just don't hold my interest like the historical ones do.

I have a similar view to Jacobite. If it's not historical or near historical I just cannot relate to it and don't find it intresting. At least that is until someone makes a really cracking Star Wars scenario based on the original films (take a hint Kobyashi  ).

I am not sure what you mean by this, however it is a very well-thought out comment compared to what you posted over in the Spanish Forum about Gibraltar!

Find me a history text that says something to the contrary of my Dual Euro scenario's depiction of the anti-human war and we'll talk.
/me sulks
/me thinks of the hours and hours of painstaking research he did

Does this mean there are no science fiction or fantasy scenarios either?

I like historical, but I like Sci-fi as well. Just recently, I've been in PBEMs and not too much into other scenarios
