TT49 Sellasia (222 BC)

Fortifications on the hill get a bonus in the battle for the hill? I mean, restrictions on the number of battle dices...

So my view on how this works is that the number of dice is determined by the hill terrain. Maximum 2 dice uphill and 3 dice from hill to hill (except cavalry).
The ramparts allow the occupant to ignore 1 flag and 1 Sword if across a rampart hexside, be it uphill or hill to hill.

This would be those two normal terrain rules working together.

Sorry, yes, the intention was to have the ramparts and hill hexes function normally, I should have clarified. ~Travis

It also appears there is a small error in the description of the special rules:

"...or a Macedonian unit successfully occupies any entrenchment hex at the remainder of the Macedonian turn, remove the entrenchments for the rest of the game."

Should instead read:

"...or a Macedonian unit successfully occupies any entrenchment hex at the END of the Macedonian turn, remove the entrenchments for the rest of the game.

2 solitaire battles with the Spartans winning both, 6 - 4, and 6 - 0. The first contest was closer because the Spartans came down from the ramparts on the left flank. That is where the majority of fighting took place. In the second contest, I let the Spartans hold, and let the Macedonians attempt to take the ramparts. They failed.
