Ineffective military tactics of The Schlieffen Plan, and new tactics needed for trench warfare were the main reasons behind the stalemate.
Trench warfare was the main method of fighting during the first World War. It involved each side digging a system of active and supporting trenches. In between the trenches was 'No Man's Land,' which was a tangle of barbed wire and landmines. Men who entered No Man's Land were usually injured or killed.
it was to keep the soldiers busy durning the long waiting periods between flighting.
On the Western Front in WWI, trench warfare was the main type of fighting. The war lasted from autumn 1914 until spring 1918. I hope that answered your question...!
It can be said that soldiers who lived in the trenches were fighting a war on two levels or perhaps two different kinds of war.In addition to their main mission against a common enemy .
trench warfare
Everyone.... ..... In ww1, trench warfare was the main thing,,, omg....
Trench warfare was one type, and one which was used more than it had been in any previous war (and maybe since then). Also, things such as gas attacks are classed as well as use of tanks to invade enemy territory and fighter planes.
Trench warfare was one of the main contribtors to the exceptional loss of life during world war one. The nature of trench warfare was that the opposing armies would charge and have to cross "no man's land" under a hail of bullets and barb wire, etc. This often resulted in the complete wipe-out of the charging force....and deadlocked many advancing armies to a stand still.
Trench Warfare. Both sides dug trenches and bombarded the other with shells (mini missile bombs). Occasionally one side would go 'over the top' and attempt to capture the enemy's trench by crossing No Man's Land. This was the area between the two front lines of trenches. This area was littered with bodies and craters made by the shells.
13unluck: If I remember correctly, the main type of fighting was either trench fighting or chemical warfare. Opposing sides would invade trenches or bomb the opposition the rush forward to claim the area..
There are two main methods of killing the enemy. The machine gun has come into its own. Artillery has become a very powerful means of killing. Trench warfare can only be sustained because of modern technology: 2 things principly bring this about. Railways & Tinned Food.

The main reason for this is that similar working day schedules around the world.
