Did they have a bomb shelter? That will make it more difficult.
FYI, nuclear missles are considerably more powerful than nuclear bombs.
Against cities, you're going to need more than one nuke to reduce to to where you can take it easily - however, the real power of nukes is to not only weaken cities, but to also destroy surrounding forces. When I launch a nuclear attack, I usually hit as many cities as I am able to in the first salvo - oftentimes that cripples the enemy military to the point where I can take their cities at my leisure.
