Hi,

technology made this war what it was, a slow moving advancement and retreat for a
period of 4 years. Important tactics and sweeps such as the Schliefen Plan, Plan 17 and
use of gases played the most important role in shaping the outcome, advancment and use
of weapons in the war. One of the biggest weapon advancements which differentiated the
war from past wars was the machine-gun
In 1884 Hiram Maxim developed the worlds first automatic, light, portable
machine-gun. Maxim designed the gun as to use the recoil energy given off by each bullet
to advance the next cartrage out and load the next bullet into the chamber. This ment that
a person no longer had to reload a gun or waste time re-aiming the gun. Each
machine-gun had the fire power of 100 rifles, and were maned by a team of 3 to 6 men,
making it more labor efficient than a rifle also
