I play BTS emperor lvl. Anyone else have AI cities popping out brand new units in the middle of the human players combat turn? Are these new units made/conscripted or do they arrive from other cities? Surely this should not happen outside the AI's turn.

Recently I've had a lot of sieges turn out badly because of this "feature".
 
The only thing that can happen, is the Partisans Random Event (If you raze a City, the owner might get some Partisans units.)

Otherwise, you must just have overlooked the Units before - perhaps the AI had a stack so big, that you didn't see all of it ?
 
It is definetly impossible for the Ai to get units during your turn. It sounds to big to even be a bug so you must have overlooked the unit.
 
You see that there's only one longbow left in the city, you attack and win, but you don't move into the city. There's one more defender. You kill him. There's another. Maybe even a third turns up after you finish that one?

It's the Partisans. They're weak, even if they are state of the art tech, right?
It adds some variety and uncertainty to the game. I enjoy it.
 
The partisans don't work like that. They only work if you raze a city, and should only work when the city's owner is running emancipation.
 
One of two things happens to me personally.

1. If I whip/buy my unit then I don't get it until the next turn, then on the AI's turn and he is going to capture my city then the unit I paid for comes into play and will defend. I guess the game considers the unit complete and just doesn't give it to on your turn for game balance I'd assume, but it'll let it defend for you.

2. I see sometimes on my unit that is wounded or stacked, that the animations shows the rest of my, already there, units run to the stack. It isn't addes, just a special effect that the games does. It just shows a unit running to the stack, but doesn't actually add anything.

yeah, rushed unit comes out of the gate at the end of your turn. Not sure about regularly built units though.

As for the animation, well... I don't rely on this to give me any information
 
Maybe some units were in your land and got "bumped" when you declared war.
