Maybe it is because my English isn't perfect, but I don't understand the difference between "Field Works" and "Field Works on Hill".
Can somebody explain, please?
Defensively there is no difference, except perhaps if the attack is coming through a hexside without the fieldworks, in which case the hill defense still applies.
Hill blocks LOS, and artillery on hill may ranged attack over adjacent friendly units not on hills.
The lack of defensive effectiveness against artillery by fieldworks has been questioned, but the designer has confirmed fieldworks do not protect against artillery fire
