The Western Front is usually portrayed as a static theatre, an arena deadlocked by thick mud and attritional trench warfare. But this is not the full story. Trench combat was the product of circumstance and necessity rather than choice.
In addition, both sides continually experimented with new weapons, new technology and new tactics in an effort to achieve breakthrough.
