  The scale of the French tanks' failure in their first engagement in 1917, lead to rumours that the Artillerie Speciale was in danger of being disbanded, yet, by the end of the war it was the world's largest and most technologically advanced tank force. This work examines this important facet of the French army's performance in the First World War.
