A question on Diplomacy strategy:

I've only ever played one game, and it didn't finish. I was playing Italy. Based on my analysis of the personalities of the players, I decided that my most trustworthy alliance would be with Turkey. What strategies are useful for an Italy/Turkey alliance? (Incidentally, any cooperation with either Britain or Russia is out of the question.)

I'd need to see a map of the game in its current state. Strategy depends highly on current game configuration, so there's not much I can say about how an Italy-Turkey alliance should operate in general, except that it should try to gobble up Austrian supply centers, which is obvious anyway.
