    It's funny watching this strategy. I did this same thing in a game a long while back (probably during G&K). America and Siam were my neighbors and Washington declared war on Siam. I didn't want him to take a close Siamese city, so I surrounded it with troops. After many turns spent suiciding their units against the Siamese city with no chance of capturing it, I decided to declare war on the weakened America. The next turn, Siam and America made peace and America received that Siamese city in the peace deal! So after all the help I gave to Siam in order to keep that city, they ended up just giving it away.

    +DocSardo Yeah that's so annoying when that happens, in a game in which i was pretty isolated on my own little island and next to William who had his own island (normally one of the best neighbours you can have IMO), Germany and England were fairly close to him, but there was no way they could've taken any of his cities except for Groningen that was in a one tile island. Germany and England were ganging up on him with them losing a lot of units on the sea they needed to cross to get to him. In one of their earlier wars He gave up Utrecht to the English! his second best city after Amsterdam. Then after a lot of time and me not feeling particularly warlike just building wonders and science/production the world ganged up on England. Some time ago i might've been a bit afraid of their ship of the line when i didn't have frigates, but they fought a two-front war with Germany and Poland already and i had ironclads now. Sure i guess i can liberate Utrecht and a city-state England took. Peace for all your money, fine! done. Then Germany declared war on William again and he gave up Rotterdam to the Germans which was now his second best city. After a while peace broke out, England mended it's reputation somewhat by choosing the world ideology freedom i picked and most of the world followed, but Germany was order. People denounced him and me as well to gain even more favour with the freedom civs, then dogpile upon Germany with Russia, England and Poland joining in. Ah i thought why the hell not let's try and liberate Rotterdam now i've got a fairly strong navy so i should be succesfull in that. Sure liberated, Bismarck gave me his money totally fine. Then in the very late game when people weren't at war with Germany anymore and i was about to win a science victory, sure Germany declares war on William again like always. He gave up Utrecht this time to the Germans. HUGE FUCKING FACEPALM William, you can't count on me this time to liberate it AGAIN i'm going to space and laugh at you for being horrible in peace deals

    I find the AI advantages to be *bullshit*. I had a game where in the year 2200, I basically had control of all diplomacy via city states and had embargo'd my biggest rivals. Shaka was making -3000 GPT at one point, I had banned 4 of his main luxury items, and I embargo'd trade with his civ. YET, every turn his happiness went below -10, it would miraculously rise above 0 again the next turn, even if there was literally no change to his civ or trading, I never saw a single barbarian generated in his territory, and despite being thousands of gold in deficit, he still kept the strongest military force in the world. I find these little bullshit tricks the computer gets to just not get stomped completely ruin the single player experience. I think it's stupid I need to completely hamstring myself and use exploits to have a challenging yet fun experience. I wont purchase another Civ until the A.I. is actual good AI and not just number bonuses for the computer.

That's not really a lot to ask for.

    Only works if they have siege units worse than artillery, maybe canon don't remember. Also you could've just embarked units and surrounded the city completely. But I don't even know about that because I forget but I think the thing is the horsemen might be able to run right past your units and take the city if your units are only in the first ring so idk really

    I actually stumbled across this tactic at one point...used it to stop Siam from wiping out the Zulu after they got down to just one city. I just want to mention, for anyone who might still be watching this stuff, that you need at most 6 units to pull this off (1 less for each adjacent mountain unless the enemy is Carthage). The only mistake made in the first attempt was to block off only the land tiles. Embarked units can capture cities, though they suck at it, so the trebuchets made that capture possible, but an easy solution is just to embark your own units to stop his embarked units from performing the capture.

    This is a bit of a late game exploit, but it is possible to achieve if you focus strictly on gold and play as a Civ that makes making money much easier. If you make several hundred gold per turn (most likely near the end of the game) you can use said gold to trade the gold with a Civ you plan on going to war with for one of their cities. AI seriously ovetvalues their cities, but give in on offers that are usually in the range of 200-1000. By trading all your GPT for a city you can declare war on them instantly after completing the deal. You dont give your opponent any gold as a result, and the deal is cancelled because of the war, but you keep the city with no population loss. This has been the greatest trade deal in the history of trade deals

    Did something semi-similar with the Zulu. I was Assyria and far more advanced (after taking out the Morrocans early on) maybe 6-8 tech ahead and I had a huge economy and diplomatic base. The Zulu lead me solely in military size. Then I decided to end that and settle three cities on their solo continent and stock it with military units. A while later I developed nukes and stored the foremost cities with 2 of each. As I grew limited in my uranium supply I developed a few nuclear missiles and sent over a carrier and a sub and from there just watched Shaka consistently threaten me while I comfortably rode off to a diplomacy win.

    This is common tactic. Use your units as mobile impassable mountain tiles. A easier way is to use 6 units and block every entry points next to the city. Even if it is on 0 health. They still won't manage to capture it. But be careful of your border agreement. Once I defended their city perfect with this tactic, but the open boarder ended, and since I had so many units close they would not agree to a new one. 2 rounds later their capital was then gone.
