Thanks for all the great responses thus far guys.

I would agree that a well-played Turkey should never be a pushover for Russia early in the game. An ealry war may not be in Turkey's advantage but Turkey can, without an extreme vent, bleed Russia and make it not worth her while. Russia's victory will at best be pyrrhic and there is always the risk that Russia could loose a key battle and suffer debilitating calvary pursuit losses.

One game the Russian player invaded an uncontrolled Turkey as an "experiment." Naturally, as France, I assumed control. I lost the first battle but b/c he was a predictable chit picker (e.g., as Russia he always picked defend on defense) I won the next two and wiped out his army completely. Admittedly his chit picking helped a lot.

I would argue that Turkey should resist the Russia advance, take Fedual losses, and then move back and cut Russia's supply line to Constantinople. At that point the Russian will have suffered significant losses and a Dec. phase should have intervened (or be close) to replenish the feudals.
