This site is focused more on the heavy artillery of the Germans rather than the kind that can be carried by a person. Most heavy weaponry had distances that covered miles at a time while still being fairly accurate. The new "Karl battery" fired a 4,850 pound mortar that could penetrate up to 98 inches of concrete. Talk about boom.
