Fall 1904: heavy losses for Turkey (F Greece disbanded and F Constantinople dislodged) and serious setback for France (A Belgium dislodged).
Russia apparently read the mind of the Pasha and with some help from Italy secured Greece and Constantinople.
Germany cut English Channel support for Belgium allowing the troops from Holland with help from Ruhr to force the French into retreat. And while the Germans are fighting the French the Russians sneak in the backdoor and take Vienna.
England meanwhile watches the French army from Wales and the Russians from Clyde fight over Liverpool without any winner. English diplomacy at work or sheer luck?
Two retreats required: Turkey and France.
