I don't see people talking about games, but I would like some opinions.

The short version of this game:

I'm Austria. At different points I allied with Germany and Italy, trusting them because they were doomed if they stabbed me. They both did (and neither survived the game). So I ended up yoked to Russia, who promised me a two-way draw.

Obviously that wasn't going to happen, but I couldn't see a place to break away from that alliance without getting crushed. So I ended the game as a 16 SP survivor. I made 84 , but I believe in winner-takes-all.

I'm curious if anyone sees another opportunity. By the way, I tried repeatedly to get England on my side, but he wouldn't bite. By the time he was willing to work with me, it was already too late.
