What was used before trench warfare?

World War I was a military conflict that lasted from 1914 to 1918. It was a modern war with airplanes, machine guns, and tanks. However, the commanders often fought World War I as if it were a 19th Century war. They would march their troops across open land into the face of machine guns and often slaughter. War before the 1st World War, were not trench warfare. Steel armor is one kind of warfare that took place before trench warfare.


How did weapons of world war 1 change warfare and produced massive causalities?

As grisly as it is referring to warfare, the weapons of World War I changed warfare by making it much more efficient. WW I was not the first use of the machine gun, but it was the first sustained use of the water cooled machine gun, which could fire 500+ rounds per minute, hour after hour. In research done after that war, the machine gun was voted the most destructive weapon of the war by all combatants.


Is total warfare used today?

Total conventional warfare has not really been used on a major large scale since the Korean War. This is army against army. In Vietnam the U.S. was able to defeat the NVA by means of conventional warfare. This was a problem for the NVA who knew that they could be defeated by conventional warfare. They changed their strategy to a more unconventional guerilla warfare which is hit and run tactics and ambushes. This strategy was put into great effect in Afghanistan when Soviet Forces invaded. Conventional warfare has been used on a smaller scale in the First Gulf War and the Iraq War. The modern day war in Afghanistan observes guerilla warfare as seen in Vietnam and Afghanistan decades earlier.
