WWI used trench warfare.
This is where each side dug miles and miles of trenches (in France here).
Then each side would try to gain an advantage. charges of a section of the army, artillery, snipers, machine gunners, later bombs from aircraft
barbed wire (takes time to get through, get caught on, blown to bits by a machine gun while trying to free yourself) protected the trenches as well as sandbags (absorbed bullets, easy to make walls with)
for more look it up on wikipedia
enjoy :)
