True story, the US Army did casualty analyses of WW1 and determined that artillery barrages have a diminishing returns effect as survivors get into cover. It's what governed the development of time-on-target missions, to maximize the amount of metal falling in the opening seconds.
Time-on-target: Rather than assigning a battery to shell a target for a period of time, a central HQ directs ALL available batteries to put a couple shells on target, synchronized so that all shells arrive at the same time regardless of travel distance. MRSI (multiple-round-simultaneous-impact) takes the same concept and uses different powder charges and elevations in the same gun to get even more rounds to arrive at the same time
