Trench Layout

Setup your trench to face the opposing faction. Do not build your trenches vertically to the enemy when defending a trench line.
 
 
The red arrow indicates where the enemy is approaching from. In a perfect world you’ll want your trenches facing a no man’s land so the opposing faction has no cover.
 
The Orange Dots indicate the defenders. You’ll want to shoot from these positions. If grenades become a problem, fall back to the secondary defensive line if the grenades can’t be avoided.

Timely Manner

If someone tells you what your digging isn’t helping they MAY be right. Ask them what’s wrong with what you’re doing.
 
 
For example if the invaders are pushing to such an extent that you won’t finish your trench line in time perhaps you should fall back a bit.
 
 
It’s better to build something great than build somethinghalf built to beused against you later.
