Hey /k/, I've got a bit of an odd question to ask. What

My top three would be the Somme, Verdun, and Passchendaele. Cliche, but they're well-known for good reason.

For the Somme I'd choose going over the top in the first day and just seeing your m8s get slaughtered, for Verdun I choose just enduring so much shelling that your brain turns to mush, and for Passchendaele I'd choose drowning in some puddle in a shellhole because your limbs have been disabled.

Thread, I'd reverse the order though.

Which ever battle had the first use of mustard gas.

... No autocorrect, that / wasn't a typo

>>27576511
Look up Ypres and the ypérite.

OP here

jesus christ Passchendaele sounds brutal

Look up the fighting for the "Fort de Vaux" during the Battle of Verdun.

I like the idea of this - and it's got a shitload of potential, yeah, but it's more of a long-term session than I'd want to do to instill the mood. The apathy, depression, et cetera. I wouldn't want to whitewash something like that. But, summarizing the dull pitter-patter of rain on a gasmask you're somehow wearing, uncontrollable murmurs all around you with nowhere to go, then a whistle and a resounding bellow of 'Over the top!' - cliche, sure - would do well I think

Fighting with grenades, bayonets, shovels and flame-throwers in the poorly lit small corridors of a Fort you need to protect at all cost seems horrible. Could be interesting for a /k/ Halloween night.

Or with your buddies, if you could score some cheap knock-off gasmasks.
