So I have an army with some mobile artillery in a city...and an enemy comes to attack... my arty starts attacking when he gets in range... once the two armies get into direct contact/combat , will my army use its attack stats or defence+entrench stats?

It will only use defense + entrenchment due to your forces holding the center of the province/city."Going to war without France is like going hunting without an accordion." Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf

(Even if im still waiting on solution my own trouble)
If enemy do good timing and your defensive arty shot him within shotrange closecombat triggering, your stack do both att and def. Enemies stack same.
Only if enemy comes first to "zero point" or manuelly trigger closecombat first, he stay attacker only, and you stay deffender only. -

When enemy gets in range, your arty will attack, and it will continue to attack every hour thereafter. When armies come in contact your army will defend and will fight as defender every hour thereafter. Example:
16:10 Enemy in sight/range moving towards you, cannons fire at enemy with attack stats.
16:55 Armies come in contact, your army is fighting with defence stats.
17:10 Now your whole army (not just cannons) will fight with attack stats, and enemy will be fighting with defence stats.
17:55 This time your army will use defence stats,
etc... etc... until someone dies or retreats.
THIS IS CONFIRMED BY EXPERIMENTATION.
I prefer to keep artillery in a separate formation, behind the defending army.
