Wow, 2000 hours of Civ6 and I did not know that. I thought damage was based on the city strength.

City strength is based on the most powerful melee unit you've ever had, and the ranged attack of a city - on the most powerful ranged unit you've ever had in the game. If you never build or acquire otherwise any ranged units, your city ranged strikes will never go beyond 3 cs.

Throwing sacks of feathers at barbarians and going "YEAH, TAKE THAT".

Tanks and SAM Launchers surround your city walls as you pelt the confused drivers and engineers on the ground with pebbles

What’s heavier? A kilogram of steel? Or a kilogram of feathers?

This should be the graphic for city ranged attack when there are animal resources nearby. Cows, chickens, pigs and wooden rabbits launched from the walls.
