You didn't need to wait for Tanks or Cavalry to win Civ2. Writing gave you Diplomats which pretty much sealed the end for the AI.
On units: while Civ2 did have some useless ones, Civ3 is guilty of having gaps. The worst one is the long long wait from 6 attack Cavalry to 16 attack Tanks. That's more than double the attack strength without any intermediate unit. Warmongering pretty much grinds to a halt after those Riflemen and Infantry show up in cities.
