The strategy of using machine guns in World War I focused on maximizing firepower and defensive capabilities. Positioned in fortified locations, machine guns created lethal zones that could decimate advancing infantry, effectively making traditional charges obsolete. Their ability to deliver sustained fire led to a static trench warfare environment, where both sides sought to dominate key positions while minimizing casualties. This shift in warfare emphasized attrition over maneuver, fundamentally altering military tactics and strategies throughout the conflict.
