Can a trench be dug in a mountain, swamp, desert or Near East space?

Several posters read the trench rule the same way, and the rulebook names no terrain exception; there is no official ruling.

Yes. The trench rule names no terrain exception, so a Level 1 trench can go in a mountain, swamp or desert space. An army on the Near East map, such as an Ottoman army in Constantinople, may attempt one there too.
