Having massive prestige generally means you are a great farmer with lots of troops but doesn't mean they know how to use them.
Iv seen the same thing happen but only when there is no academy in the city.

a converted lvl10 witrh a lvl9 rally seems strange......I am in the alliance of the defender and just now scouted the closest attackers city to the target. If that was the attacking city, I can confirm it does have a level 10 acad in a converted NPC10 city.

Because I know the alliance and I highly doubt that any of them would attack without a academy, haha there was some group mail when a member was kicked from the alliance and "He's a complete noob once deystroyed his academy"
Also if the enemy alliance scouted and said it was a converted 10npc I'd say its probably a converted 10npc.
BUG maybe same crap happened to me I was attacking someone with 1000 AT and 40 traps 3000 abits 200k scouts died. Wave after wave died. Every scout report said all defense still intact
The next day loyalty dropped to 10 form 90
So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and to strike at what is weak.

1. Where is the guy that launced rhe attack? Why is he not posting in here that his city DOES or does NOT have an academy? Maybe he accidently demolished ir or dropped a level.
You say "you have no guys". Are you accessing their accts to know or scouting your own members?
2. @Dawnseeker. While I do respect you. I find it sickening that you would poke your head in here and say what you said. It sounds like all you are doing is looking at the report too. Go hack the city with your super admin buttons and look, before assuming. I will apologize if you did do that. But you sure did not say. "We checked into this and he does not have an academy at level 10 at the time of the atk". Or some other vague yet clear answer. Maybe there has been one of those "undocumented" things and acted by not recognizing his academy. Just like when I send transports it says 14 hours when in fact it is 45 minutes. (And yes I cycled the heroes to find the fastest one)
I honestly do not care if it was two months ago. All I saw was speculation and assumptions with no confirmation at the end. Which was my point. Seeing Dawn come in and make a speculation. Or least that is how I percieved what he said based on the reports. Is again. In my opinion just wrong. I know they cannor coimment directly about account status. But a simple. "At thge time of that attack, he did not have his techs max out." Vague yet totally answering the questions. So yes I did think. Even read through all the messages three times to make sure I read them as accurately as possible.
Since I am a mechanic (game not the troop) junkie, I see these and get a little worried. So I ran a little simulation on paper, with full techs on the defender, and 0 techs on the attacker.
The above where the attacker has 0 tech, 10 Attack, 10 Int.
Would have had similar results. Taking the current game knowledge and applying.
The archers would have walked into range at turn 11, taking about 5.5k losses per round. And 'WOULD NOT' have been in range to attack the ATs till round 16.
There went 30k of the archers. before even firing....
The last 65k would hit killing a about 600, increasingly few each round.
Finally the ATs kill the last of the troops about round 44.
So the above is possible, under the current rule-set. No hacking or Developer mischief needed.
So, either :
A) the person in question does not know a academy is needed to get the tech bonuses
B) This is a captured town, and the attacker did not notice the academy was missing (the most probable)
C) The people in question purposely set this up to mess with us, and waste all our time.... (God, I hope not)

Similar thing happened to me just today actually.
Sent a smack to clear archers and AT's.
75k cav, 15k cata, 10k scouts.
He had, at the time of the sent attack, 130k arch, and 15k AT's. Scattered traps and abis here and there. Had my alliance chip him to clear the minuscule defenses.
An hour later I get my report, full loss, I killed what was left of his archers (my alliance was scout bombing him) and roughly 3k AT's.
So when I hit, he had 15k AT's, 44k arch, 3k trans, 2k ballis, 5 traps, and 10 abis. Even after my wave, he still had 2 abis left, along with the 13k AT's.
It lasted 10 rounds, luckily I healed 50%.
But is there something I'm missing here?
