In DEFENDING the town...If, as defender, I occupy trenches in front of town....LOF is impacted for
Units in the town firing over the entrenchment hex.
1) HMG units in the Town may fire---BUT ONLY if there is an empty hex between the unit in trenches and the enemy
2) INF in the Town MAY NOT FIRE EVER over the occupied trenches---(nor may they be fired at by INF--shooting over the trenches)

Point 1 is correct. So the HMG, AA gun or AFV would only be able to fire at a range of 3 hexes, out of the town. I would put the HMG in the entrenchment. Then a mortars or other artillery in the town.
The first part of 2 is correct. Second part is wrong, there is nothing that prevents firing through enemy units.
