Answer

Ruling: You can activate Battlefield when defending in a Showdown, but your defending unit will not receive the +3 bonus from Assault.

Nuances:

  • Assault specifically checks whether your units are attackers or defenders
  • Assault bonuses only apply when your units are attacking, never when defending
