In this Great war there are many different tactics and artillery being used. There is a lot of speculation as to what is being used at the present time. I have done a lot of research in the last few months to uncover the true weapons being used. I hope the following clears up anything you were wondering about what is being used in The Great War.

The idea of the tank was first designed by Leonardo De Vinci, in 1482. The French attempted to create the armored vehicles of which daVinci spoke, but it was the British who developed the first track-laying armored vehicles during The Great War. On September 16, 1916, forty nine tanks were used at the battle of Somme near Courcelette, France, with negative results. A year later, in November 1917, 400 tanks penetrated the Hindenberg line near Cambrai on the Eastern Front. This attack captured 8000 enemy soldiers and 100 enemy guns.

This particularly horrific method of warfare is based on releasing toxins or incapacitating chemicals into enemy lines in order to cause mass death or at least incapacitate the enemy.

This was a military weapon used to project flames toward the enemy. A flame-thrower consists of a fuel container filled with oil, a cylinder containing a gas propellant under a high pressure, a discharge tube with an adjustable nozzle and an ignition device. In The Great War, two styles of flame-throwers have been used thus far: A heavy one mounted on a tank and a light, portable, hand carried one. The flame-thrower has great psychological impact during the war because it succeeds in inflicting fear into the enemy. However, as a weapon it is limited by its short range and unpredictable aim. The flame-throwers being used in The Great War consume great amounts of fuel.
