I haven't faced too many WTs here, but as Turkey, if I couldn't get there myself, I would look to hold the 14center southern stalemate (Ita, Aut, Balkins, Tur & Sev) with two of Ita, Aut & Rus. Obviously, if the WT gets off to an exceptionally strong start, cutting out one of the southern powers may not be possible.
That still leaves enough centers on the other side for someone to solo, but the Triple will have to break for that to happen. If it does break, then Tur should be well positioned to make immediate gains in the Balkins.
