Impenetrable Towns

Just played a game where the town + one adjacent hex was completely surrounded by mountains. How the heck do you attack that?

Thanks.

Maybe pepper it with arrows and magic then use a transport spell to get a troop on it?

You don't have to take over the whole map to win anyway. I know of 4 ways to "beat" the map.
Kill all other great mages
Kill a gods avatar
Control all holy grounds
Cast the Unity spell.

Flying creatures are your answer

Catapults. Preferably levitating catapults.

Levitating melee units are lethal, especielly at sea.

Yeah, I love levitating units. The levitate spell has a high cost but if you can cast in on about half a dozen heavily buffed units then you have an awesome amphibious assault force. Its fun to capture coastal cities this way.

Levitated ancient liches are possibly the best unit in the game against anything not immune to death.
