It is a different to attack highly mobile , heavy armored artillery "Ships". and nearly static artillery.. One problem with the German Artillery at Normandy was that the German guns came from many countries and many different calibers. They achieved very little against the warships.

The British lacked the ability for maneuver warfare! They attacked the German Forces ranging from the Artic to West Africa and in every occupied country. This tied down 10 000' of troops, but lets ignore this. Rommel described the Eighth Army advance as vulture like, in a letter to his wife. The 8th Army did 1,100 km in just 17 days from El Alamein to Benghazi November 4th to 20th 1942. To be fair the Germans went quicker in retreat. The British had to advance faster in Somalia as the Italian retreated faster than the Germans. The Nigerian troops were frustrated that the Italians would not stay and fight
