Nice to hear from you Hakim,
BAW does (unlike most other rule sets) include scenario generation as part of the game set up.
The BAW scenario generator creates games which are fair to both players.
The problem with scenarios that are just "made up" is that they often need to be played four times in order to create a balance of outcome.   i.e both players have a chance to succeed.  By this time the scenario has lost its freshness.

Here are some ideas if you want to put a "twist" into games.
1. Allow the opponent to deploy your army. Therefore both armies should be deployed very badly.
2. Attacker rolls for the countdown and keeps it secret.  Thus the game will end suddenly but with the attacker knowing how it is going.
3. Introduce weather so that bow fire cannot happen.
