What exactly does the infamous "Visual Bug" I've seen talked about so much actually cover?

I reported someone for cheating a few weeks ago since, according to the battle results, he destroyed my entire town using only one foot soldier. He was deemed innocent by CS and they said it was just a result of the "Visual Bug". Of course, if that's so, then fair enough, no problem.

However, I just got absolutely trashed by someone who, according to the battle results screen, had NINE tactics, 8 fully-upgraded Barrages and one Betrayal. Obviously, 8 fully-upgraded Barrages destroyed most of my defenses before he even dropped a troop even though I'm in IA and lvl 147.

I don't think it's possible to have nine tactics is it? He's French so no extra tactic like the Koreans and the War Academy only goes up to level 6 which is 5 tactics. Please say if I've missed something though.

It also said his barrages were doing 1,120 HP damage each and two of them would destroy three of my defensive buildings completely. Is it possible for them to do 1,120 HP damage each? I haven't upgraded my Barrage so the Dominations wikia is my only reference and that says the maximum is 888 HP.

As a result, I lost 350k+ of each resource and 1,960 oil...

Anyway, I was just wondering if this is a result of the "Visual Bug" or whether he is actually cheating. I don't want to report him if he's done nothing wrong. Admittedly, he did also have two lvl 30 Generals but I totted up his troops and they only came to 135 which is legit.

Anyone have any prior experience of the "Visual Bug" causing more tactics than possible to appear on the battle results screen?

Cheers
