This is a computer tactic that has stymied me again and again throughout the years. I've just started playing this game again fairly recently and I've come up against the following. Another civilization has its final city to close to one of my cities. I attack and wittle them down to a city size of '2'. They have no further armies within the city. Normally, I'd capture a city in that state, but since it's close to one of my cities and I don't want them competing for resource squares I wait, assuming that they'll repopulate with an army next turn and I can completely destroy them. They don't. They sit and wait until they're a city size of '3' again and only then add the extra army. I knock them back down to a '2'. The process repeats. It seems like one of the computer's cheats, because it seems like there's no way to get the timing of city size increase and getting the new army in the city that synchronized otherwise.
Short of a horde of barbarians showing up and capturing it for me, which would allow me to then destroy the barbarian city, is there any way for me to destroy this city?
