Sometimes I wonder if you aren't edging into a 'Wehrmacht porn' state of mind.It suited a mostly land-locked country with plenty of spare big naval rifles and a big railway network to make and use them even outside Germany proper in WWI and WWII.
But the more mobile nature of WWII was such that they were not a major factor for the Germans, who lost anyway.
IF they had been so important the Allied Armies in Europe after 1943 would have had as many as they could, but they did not. Viz. I don't think the USArmy's biggest (240Mm?) was ever mounted so.
? Air power.
I am currently re-reading 'Hitler's Panzers', and highly recommend you read it, too. It's recent-ish and by an American prof - Dennis Showalter - so you should be able to find a copy. Click down below.
A truly coherent story, and almost a systems approach.
Very few pictures, though.
