Trench Mortars
A mortar was basically a short tube that could fire a projectile at a steep angle, so the projectile will fall straight down on the enemy.
One aspect that made mortars a great weapon was that, you could attack or fired your enemy from your trenches, and that makes it much more safer for the soldiers because they will not have to expose their bodies to the enemies. Perhaps it was one of the larger artillery pieces, it was light and easy to transport. It was a very effective weapon, by the fact that the projectile will fall straight down the enemy and will clear all the enemy trench.
Undoubtedly one of the most effective and accurate weapon of World War I.
