Weapons such as the machine gun and artillery made it very hard to cross no-mans land, or an open expanse between the two sides, and survive. Various gas weapons were also used to hinder infantry, such as chlorine gas and mustard gas. These gases would damage or kill foot soldiers. Some obstacles such as barbed wire, mines, and terrain also made it difficult to attack.

With the introduction of tanks, it was much easier for armies to break stalemates and advance into enemy territory.

How far could machine guns fire in ww1?

During World War I, machine guns, such as the Maxim and Lewis guns, had effective firing ranges of about 1,000 to 2,000 yards (approximately 900 to 1,800 meters). However, their practical range was often limited by factors like terrain, visibility, and the need for accurate targeting. The rapid rate of fire allowed them to deliver a significant volume of fire within this range, making them a pivotal weapon on the battlefield. These capabilities contributed to the stalemate and trench warfare that characterized much of the conflict.
