Austria is at the center of the action, has excel-
lent access to resources, and a lot of neighbors.
Preventing your neighbors from ganging up on
your is the first priority for Austria.
Take Serbia, and make sure that Russia and Italy
do not decide to invade you. Suggest to them
the advantages of an early attack on Turkey.
With Turkey, encourage him to build fleets and
fight Italy, or get into an early war with Russia
around the Black Sea.
More than any other power, you will succeed or
fail based on your powers of persuasion. Do not
be afraid to make deals that favor other powers
slightly more than yourself, as you need good
friends to survive.
