    Well in MTW you could abandon while under siege and some cities should be able to flee by sea/straight or river. That is considering that there are no enemy fleets next to yours.

    Historically it did happen that an entire populace either left before the opposing army or they snuck out during the siege. How often and how successful would have had many factors.

    Could have been a feature that they could not get done in time.

    true it was under extreme discussion of the Athenians at the battle of marathon but they were able to fool the persians instead, we all know the story.
