I am playing in the 1880s. When I attack the enemy they seem to have a dug-in bonus that gives me a -4 on the battle screen.
However when they attack me I see no dug-in bonus, even though before the battle starts when I hover over my unit it says "dug-in 1/1: 5 days for next dug-in bonus".
So my questions are:
1) If before the battle starts I have a dug-in bonus of 1/1, should I not get at least a -1 to their attack once the battle starts? Why does the dug-in icon not show up on the battle screen then?
2) what proportion of my armies have to be dug-in to get the dug-in bonus when the battle starts? Say if I have a 15 stack in the province that is dug-in and then I send in another 5 stack to reinforce the province right before the battle starts, do I lose the dug-in bonus because the reinforcing units does not have time to dig-in?
3) Does my enemy get the -4 to my attacks because they have some tech advantage over me? If so which techs do I need to research to get higher "dug-in" bonuses?
I am playing with the AHD extension but without HOD by the way.
