Does a fort's combat factor shift the column when a fort space with a trench is attacked?
The rulebook adds a fort's factor to the defence and gives trench benefits only with friendly units present.

No. A fort's combat factor is added to the defending strength; it does not shift the fire column. Forts never benefit from a trench by themselves, and the trench helps only when friendly units defend alongside the fort.
