There really wasn't much of a cold war. There are some historical 
gamers who are rabidly anti-scifi or anti-fantasy (more with the 
latter, actually; I've met a few online who are very religious and 
fantasy has "magic" which they consider "anti-Christian).

However, a recent set of posts on rec.games.miniatures.historical 
showed that a good deal of historical players play sci-fi as well. 
Many also play fantasy.

I think you'd probably find, particularly in the Warhammer crowd, 
that there are more fantasy/sci-fi players who refuse to play another 
game system -- let alone anything historical -- than the other way 
around.
