Civilization II Hints
Guerrillas in the Mist
Dealing With Partisans. Guerilla Warfare really bogs the game down. If your opponents have this then you can probably forget about a quick military victory. Conversely if you have it then you're unlikely to be knocked out before you finish building your spaceship.
"I think I have found a strategy that helps limit those pesky Partisans. Partisans only appear on empty land squares within a cities zone of control. If you fill up all available land squares then take the city you do not get any partisans. If you can't fill all of the squares you can at least determine were the partisan will go. That way you can kill him quicker. I like using bombers or fighters to fill up the squares. With fighter I send them to the square they will occupy then press 'W' to have them wait. Take the city then move the unit. The computer player has placed a lot of rail around his cities. With Rail you can send a land unit to occupy a square then Press 'W' then take the city. You can use all of the units you have Waited with to take the next city." (Blair Nowakowsky)
