Spring 02:F Nap-Ion, F Ion-Eas, A Tun holds
Fall 02:A Tun-Syr, F Ion C Tun-Syr, F Eas C Tun-Syr

**The Sealion Opening for France and Germany tactically looks like:

F Den-Nth, A Ruh-Hol, A Kie-Den
Winter 01:Builds F Bre/F Kie
Spring 02:A Bel-Wal, F Eng C A Bel-Wal, F Bre-Mid
A Hol-Yor, F Nth C A Hol-Yor

***Two North Two South Opening for Russia looks like this:

Spring 01:A Mos-StP, F StPsc-Bot, A War-Ukr, F Sev-Bla/Rum

****Oktoberfest: Everyone Attacks Germany The tactical moves are:

Italy:A Ven-Tyr
Austria:A Vie-Boh
Russia:A War-Sil
France:A Par-Bur

This opening can be made more definitively anti German by A Par-Pic, A Mar-Bur and the ultimate crushing attack with England ordering F Lon-Eng so that it can support French A Pic-Bel in the Fall. Sadly, I have rather intimate experience with this Opening only as Germany… your time will come!
