Bunkers Trenches Improved Positions

[Dog Soldier]

In addition to what Fortynslow said, obstacles like barbed wire, damage to the position from the bombardment and / or the fight to take the position degrades the position for immediate defense.  The unit can dig deeper, move the wire, move the materials of a road block to another place in the hex or place small mines, etc. from materials in the hex or from the units on hand stores when using the "digging In" command to make the position ready again in a different direction.

Engineers carry in the unit's vehicles, or can readily obtain what is needed to make the position upgraded from lowercase to uppercase in game turns.  This is nor always an immediate next turn task.  Try it with D or E Morale engineers!

Do not confuse the marching engineers with those with transport for any engineer unit can get what it needs to improve a recently taken position from the enemy by calling up the vehicles with their equipment, specialized tools etc to the do the job that are not represented in the game at this scale. Imagine the same with where does the ammo come from?
