Huh... no, I start wars as soon as I can. It'd be far too boring to just build cities for four thousand years... and I've found I can do just fine in early wars. Sure, you don't move very far, but you can definitely still fight wars. Of course the side-effects are not building as many cities and having less science because you focused on armies, but there isn't much I can do about that...
Oh, I also never play above the lower difficulty levels... I generally play at the second one up. Warlord? I don't play it that often, so I'm hardly great at the game, which is why I play that low... I've won at that level though. One of my best was when I finished conquering the world in the 1200s... I still had catapults and stuff, but that didn't matter much. :)
Oh, and if you say catapults and cannon in Civ II aren't useful, then you've never fought a war in pre-air power times. They are the main focus of your attack strength!
