A similar technique is already being used on the Canvas Knights project to make the WWI Western Front map. The trenches are built up using three tileable ground textures. One with a dense trench network, one with no trenches but dense shellholes, and one with mud and a few shell holes. Have a look on the CK thread.

Sounds like a good idea. My notion was intended for Korea, where the trenchlines were razor thin and often ran over mountain crests, which is much harder to do with a ground texture.

More on that soon.
