Definitely will need it if they come up against wire like that ;-) Thank goodness you have already created some wire-pulling variants of the Mk IV tanks.

British cavalry had pioneer units attached, whose role was to create tracks for the horses to travel across the battlefield on. Just pulling or crushing the wire with tanks wasn't good enough. If a horse's lower leg was scratched by remnants of wire then it could be rendered hors de combat (or the equine equivalent). So part of the process included clearing away every ounce of wire from the tracks as they were created. Not something to worry about at the Great War Spearhead level of game though.
