Yessss Civ2 is just the best! Im finally on the verge of finishing putting together a huge Civ2 video Ive been working on for yrs that showcases hundreds of the best total conversion scenarios out there for it as well as some of my own ones I've made based on HoMM, C&C, Dune & SMAC to name a few. :)
