Request: scenarios with lots of tile blends

I'm trying to do some machine learning on tile blends. And I need data. Lots of it.

The preferred format is SCM/SCX/CHK. Images won't help me much - especially if they contain sprites alongside the tiles. Ideally it's a complete scenario without blocky terrain or large empty spaces.

And I'm not sure where to start. Neither of these work:
  • The Ladder has mostly images.
  • Most links to scenarios in the Hall of Fame are dead.
  • The brushes are outside context.
  • Most RPGs contain some blocky/null terrain outside the playable area (it's a problem).
  • I recently played Inconsummate and it was great. But it has custom doodads (it's a problem).
  • Protected scenarios - I'm not handling all of those correctly yet.

Any ideas/links would be welcome.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
