I realize that this forum isn´t very active and ToT in general doesn´t seem to be very popular, let alone ToT scenarios, but anyway...
There has bee a serious lack in ToT scenarios, and of course, you can convert Civ2 scenarios to ToT... But that misses the whole point, because those scenarios won´t use the range of extra possibilities ToT has. Tell me, how many ToT scenarios actually use multiple worlds? Is anyone working with CSPL yet?
I´ve had some pretty brilliant ideas for ToT scenarios, but I´m in no position to create them myself, or at least not on my own... So here are some ideas I have:
Oh, yes one first question. Are there Civ2 scenarios that consist of multiple scenarios? For instance are there people who´ve created a whole range of scenarios, to be played in sequence, each of them focussed on a small part of the whole.
Lord of the Rings
What about having a separate Visible world map, and an Invisible world map? That is, Frodo will have native transport capabilities. If he "puts on the Ring" he goes to the invisible world, where he can only be seen by other special units such as Tom Bombadil, the Nazgul and Sauron, and perhaps the other ringbearers like Galadriel, Elrond and Gandalf. Movement in the invisible world should be harder, and there should be impassable parts. Otherwise the player could simply enter the invisible world (with its few units, only the Nazgul will be a threat) and pop back up under Mount Doom.
Perhaps it would be even nicer to have all of the LOTR split up in several scenarios. For instance, first the hobbits´ journey to Rivendell, then their journey to Moria, then their journey down the Anduin etc.
The Hobbit
Does anyone know of a Hobbit scenario? I have been working on one, but I haven´t gotten any further than creating a map. But everytime I read the Hobbit again, more and more ideas come to the surface. The book could be split up in several scenarios. Say, a scenario where ll dwarves are in their cells in the Elvenking´s Palace, and you as Bilbo Baggins should free them and escape to Laketown. The entire cave would consist of multiple levels, mazelike hallways etc. etc.
North Sea Energy
Something I thouh of because of one map in my Atlas. What about an economical "battle" for energy. countries surrounding the North Sea have to locate and delve local resources, such as Oil and Gas, and transport it back to the mainland to create revenues. Units could include Oil Rigs etc. Somehow players should be able to create oil pipelines, do testdrills to find oil, create oil rigs and then transport oil to the mainland...
So, does anybody feel inspired? (Please don´t give the classic answer that I should try it myself if I like it so much.)
Does anyone have any other ideas?
Please share them. Maybe something will come out of it.

) Not that I can think of Grand Strategic level game with scenario building options that could be used instead of Civ. 
You made the Necrociv one, right? I was just browsing through the files, when I saw my name (well, with an extra "t") as the first city of the Free Cities. 
Now I just have to love that scenario. 
). Many of them - fantasy/sci-fi especially - are ripe with possibilities involving multiple maps - using dimensional travel etc.
