How to win ?

If this question has been asked before please don't be angry with me.

How can I conquer (or destroy) in a mid-game a city placed on 1 square
island ?
I know that there are some units that can attack strictly from transport
vessels but they are availible so late.

I think the vikings are the only ones with an amphibious unit early
on. All you can really do is bombard them and maybe get the Vikings
to attack.

I played a game where the Celts managed to survive war with everyone
by occupying a one square island.

If civ3, right-click and "abandon city".

Oh, as in someone _else's_ city. Yup, I think you need to wait
for amphibious warfare. Maybe you can surround it to keep them from getting
any supplies in, but that's about it.

Sorry, If not playing the Vickings, you'll have to wait for Marines.
This is in time to elimate them prior to completing the UN so they
don't vote against you. (For all other purposes, a civ reduced to a 1
tile island is already dead, it's shield output is 2 + number of whales
tiles. Bombard it with naval units to destroy and Harbors to keep it's
population down.)

It's shield production can be kept permantley at 2 by fortifing a naval
unit in every whales tile, and it's food kept at a minimum by fortifing
a naval unit in every fish tile.
