Positioning Melee Units on hills or within forests along your borders will help protect against invasion. Having a slightly wounded Melee unit near the City will often cause the City to focus its attacks there, allowing your Catapults and Archers to do their thing. Fortify until the City is ready to go down, and then move in for the Capture. Having rough terrain combat bonuses will result in taking less damage along the way, while giving you time to get to tiles you can Pillage and heal. This is especially important for Cities that are tough to take because of the surrounding Terrain. At times when they will need to get into tough battle, you can seek that terrain so that they will get a defensive modifier. Focus Units down one path and stick to it. It is wise to mix up your Melee such that some are better at fighting in Open and Rough Terrain. Heavily Promoted Melee can be beasts just like any other Unit, but their need to be in the thick of Combat also puts them at higher risk of death. They excel at beating up Ranged/Siege Weapons of the same era, thanks to their CS.
