the weapon that caused the most casualties in WWI was artillery, it was the king of the battlefield, and superiority in artillery often decided battlesWww@QuestionHome@Com

The Maxim machine gun was probably the most effective weapon of the war!. After all, the Germans had over a thousand of them, and the British Vickers gun was a licensed copy! This gun, when used effectively, as the Germans did, took more lives than were lost in many previous wars!Www@QuestionHome@Com
