Another case was when they conquered my city (there was nothing I could've done), but I had to reload the game from that turn because I forgot to change production in another city and made some settlers that I didn't need. I made exactly the same moves (except from changing that production), but in enemy turn they decided not to attack that city but move away from it.

But I belive the best one is this time when I was 'camping' next to an enemy wizard's capital waiting for my other troops to arrive so I could take the city (something I often do). Now, there's no point mentioning that the enemy could've attacked me and crushed me any time with those forces in the capital. What he did though was that he moved out some bowmen units out of the city so he could have space to produce and summon something quite useless (can't remember what). So I crushed him the next turn without those troops I was waiting for.
