What was WW1's eastern front like?
>>
The Eastern Front was about five times longer than that of the Western Front resulting that the manpower of both sides was spread out more thinly.

Such was the threat of wolf packs,local cease-fires were called so troops from both sides could eliminate them

More or less the same as any other 19th century war like the franco-Prussian War. Officers with swords even volleys pic related.

A-H didnt believe in trenches, they would retreat into fortresses and wait for german counter attacks to relieve the russian siege.

There were still trenches on the eastern front just nowhere near as extensive as the western ones
