Not having Leo's in Civ2 meant a restart for me.

Whenever I would lose it to the AIs, I would pursue a space victory or try to capture it. In fact, I would always play for a space victory, and when some AIs were too strong at the end of the game, they would gang up against me, and then I would be forced to fight them to death. Tons and tons of howitzers was my only strategy and it was effective, even on Deity. I can recall some close space races too.
But I agree that Leo was so damn good. The best part was when you discovered a tech that upgraded all your, say, dragoons to cavalries in front of a large AI city. I wonder if the spam fairy was behind that.
Curiously, I would often restart the game when I lost the Colossus.
I liked this wonder so much (because nothing beat science back then for me), and fortunately it wasn't in the middle of the game, like for Leo. I learnt to forget about the Colossus with Civ3, where science is basically a trade market.
