New opening strategy for Austria?

Hi guys,

I've been thinking about an opening strategy for Austria, but I haven't found it discussed anywhere... So, it's either a terrible idea, or a wonderful finding, and I'd like your two cents here:

A Vienna MOVE Trieste
A Budapest MOVE Trieste
F Trieste MOVE Albania

The idea here is obviously to show good faith to Italy and DMZ Trieste (auto-bounce), but without playing a suicidal gambit that Italy will do the same.

If everything goes well, you can then order:

A Budapest MOVE Serbia
F Albania MOVE Greece

Turkey can block one of those moves, but not both, and hopefully neither.

Now, if everything does NOT go well:

- If Russia moves Galicia, it will face an Austrian wall
- If Italy moves Trieste, it will bounce
- If Italy orders Rome > Venice > Apulia, Trieste can be easily defended while keeping a shot at Serbia or Greece
- If both Russia and Italy attack Austria, Austria is toasted anyway, so why bother?

This opening only makes sense if we want to cooperate with Italy from the get-go and show good faith, obviously!

Am I missing something here?

Thanks





I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
