what's the deal with triangular earthworks on what I assume are pre gunpowder fortifications?
It creates overlapping fields of fire, preventing dead-zones where assaulting infantry could hide.

when I was on vacation last year in Antwerp I visited the famous Cafe Kulminator. The guy who owns/runs the place showed me this map they have on their wall. it's an old map of antwerp. the red point is where the bar would be located.
