When the Great War began in 1914, the armies on both sides brought new technologies to the battlefield the likes of which the world had never seen. The destruction and carnage caused by these new weapons was so extensive that portions of old battlefields are still uninhabitable.

Some of the weapons devised during the war were truly terrifying.

I'm Air Force, so could be wrong here, but wasn't the tank first introduced in WW I? When you think about artillery that moves itself vs artillery firing from fixed positions, I'd be terrified.
