Reply To: Dug In Rule
To take it a step further; if the unit is dug in in fox holes the normal rules for assaults would still apply (i.e., the assaulting unit would attack first). However, if the defender is dug in behind a sandbagged position a determination would have to be made before the game begins as to whether or not it is treated as an obstacle. A low sandbag wall 1-2 feet tall poses no obstacle while a sandbag wall 4 feet high would. These types of high sandbag walls were rare in the ETO but were fairly common in the MTO and PTO.
