What is your greatest achieve you have done on CIv2!
My first world conquest. I was trying to get the spaceship, but the AI kept sneak attacking me. Take a few cities, make peace, repeat sneak attack. I ended up with the whole world before I even started building the ship - a high score at that time and lots of fun.

O yeah, I suppose my comprehensive guide to combat in CivII is worth some pride! It's in the War Acadamy at Civfanatics. There is a thread here in the Strategy forum, but that must have sunk to page 10 by now...

The discoveries of the gigamaps for MGE or ToT got me real high. Not the making of my no-limit patch, but the sheer surprise of loading in civ2map editor a oversized map of some 11000 squares after confusing numbers in hexa in the .mp file. And then the excitement of trying larger numbers still working, up to 32767. Yeah, I was feeling great that day. It’s our mistakes that make us go ahead !
Oh Man, when will you understand that your greatness lies in your failure - Goethe
Definitely my first 2.42 Deity wins. It was quite satisfying to finally overcome my loathing of all the unhappiness at that level, and grind out a few wins.

In one of the OCC fortnight games I had an uprising five squares from my (totally undefended) city - there was this stack and a single rifleman just outside it - my dip reached the rifleman with one third of a movement left - bought him and he attacked the stack - 43 units lost!!!! - what a high..........
AFAIK I am the one and only civ2 player who has won the ww2 scenario playing the French (and I guess that winning ww2 as French must be considered quite an achievement by almost anybody ).
Outside of Civ2 itself, I think my greatest achievement so far would be MapEdit, and everything that led to its creation.
I don't really know if there's really one greatest Civ2 achievement, but my most fun game recently was/is a ToT Chieftain level OCC game, my first serious attempt at OCC. I'm somewhere in the 22nd century by now I think, and I have a solid 1 city "empire" (on a small isolated island), only contested by the mighty Greeks with some 50+ cities. All Greek cities within bomber/paratrooper range have been decimated.
