I have thought about this myself recently and I decided to ask this question to the users.
Is their a difference between the the Trenches and Foxholes that makes 1 better?
I have notice while playing the the Slit Trench has a Firing ark and the Basic German Trench can build MG42 Emplacements within the trenches. This is akin to the American Foxholes where, You may build MG Emplacements in them. I have wondered, which is better?

Slit Trenches?
OR
German Trenches?
OR
American Foxholes?

All of them provide the same garrison bonus to infantry that buidings give.

German trenches are free, but the enemy can garrison them too.

British trenches cost 50 manpower, but enemies cannot garrison it

American fighting positions cost 125 manpower and can be upgraded with a MG, and when occupied by rear echelon will fire rifle grenades. But it has less health the a whermacht bunker and can be damaged by small arms.


As for which is better, the fighting pit shouldn't even be compared with the trenches. It's a counterpart to the ostheer bunker and has a very different role.

As for the trenches both obviously have benefits and drawbacks. One is free, but can be risky. The other has no risk but can be costly for an already manpower starved faction. So there is no real "better".

The modifiers for firing at units in trenches or bunkers are different (US unit in "fighting positions" probably use the same modifier as axis units in bunkers.)

For instance for some "small arm fire" weapons the modifier are:

Trench r.acc 0.5 r.dam 1
Bunker r.acc 0.35 r.dam 0.35
