It says .

If it says "Failed to load game: file is not saved game" it's because the scenario was probably made with the Fanastic Worlds version of Civ2, not the earlier one you have.

You have two choices: either upgrade, or try this handy converter. http://www.multimania.com/meuh/fw2civ/index.htm

But be warned, Fantastic Worlds is capable is using extra technologies and extra units and more complex events, and if the scenario
uses any of these it won't work properly when converted.

Be careful with the converter too...doesn't always work too well.
