Artillery barrages usually preceded an infantry attack. Artillery broke up barbed wire and other obstacles, scattered mustard gas, and put up a smoke screen.

The best time to attack was when the sun was at your back, and in the enemy's eyes.

What was the firing range of a tank during ww1?

During World War I, the firing range of tanks varied depending on the type of armament they carried. Most tanks were equipped with machine guns that had a range of approximately 1,000 to 2,000 yards, while larger tanks sometimes mounted cannons with a range of around 4,000 to 6,000 yards. However, the effectiveness of these weapons at long ranges was limited by factors such as visibility and the terrain of the battlefield. Overall, tanks were primarily used for close support and to break through enemy trenches rather than for long-range engagements.
