Didn´t know that cities with many troops are more likely to flip. Have it under control though,they usually don´t flip,my usual method,capture the rest of his cities.This is ofcourse in an offensive war,were oneself is usually superior.
If I do get stuck I tend to build the temple,after quelling all resistance.Easy if you have religous attribute or loads of money. Put simple or older units in the cities to make the max of peeps happy.If the city really is threatened by flipping take as many citizens out as possible and make them entertainers.Starve them if necessary.A happy city will not flip (WLTKD).Like Doctor´s idea too.
My current civ is ideal for this task,Aztecs->religous,building temple is cheap,and I garrison the city with Jaguar Warriors, these guys get to the city very fast (2movements) and cost just 10 shields,so even if the city does flip,I haven´t lost much.
On the general issue,I´d like to keep my units which were in the city,can´t always play Aztecs afterall (and can´t build the Jaguar Warrior after Feudalism). Maybe they should be kicked out with -1 hp,so they can´t just retake the city.Partisans are fine too,better than this,but they never really stood a chance and just got wiped out in one turn.
