How far could a world war 1 artillery gun fire?

World War I artillery guns varied in range depending on the type and model. For example, the French 75mm field gun could fire shells up to about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers), while heavier artillery like the German Big Bertha could reach ranges of over 9 miles (14.5 kilometers). Some long-range artillery, such as the Paris Gun, was capable of firing shells up to 75 miles (120 kilometers), although it was not practical for traditional battlefield use. Overall, artillery fire ranges significantly influenced tactics and strategies during the war.

The Big Berthas were used in both RR and in this case turret mounts, in both World Wars.

As far as napalm being used in warfare; it's a fire weapon...and fire has been part of warfare since the ancient Greeks used it before Christ (BC).
