Here is the video replay of Sunday’s stream, where there’s a fair amount of rambling on …
World War I in general.
Why many wargamers don’t “like” World War I.
Why WW2 games shifted to WW1 sometimes don’t work.
How we’ve adopted Valor & Victory to play 1918 battles.
A turn of solitaire demo.
. . .
And finally, my historical wargamer’s view on the recent Netflix “All Quiet on the Western Front” film.

Nice one Jim this may get some folks into playing WWI game’s.
Artillery hunted Artillery in the first war. I remember seeing a story was about they have spotters at the front watching for the gunfire of the enemy guns to get the position to their guns. Because I was thinking this could be a good was to get some excitement in boring school algebra classes.
Indeed, the only REAL difference between WW1 and WW2 artillery (at least in tactical wargaming terms) is the lack of flexibility in WW1. Basically, no radios. Pre-planned artillery barrages, creeping barrages, phased barrages, and the counter-battery barrages you mention were all certainly factors, it just had to be meticulously planned in advance.
