Romans can achieve great success when said success will cause more problems than help them you see.The funny thing is the end of their supply line should have been Vienna, or Munich at most, but here we are. The Romans keep advancing.

RIP #TeamElizabeth, where can she run now? The Romans will probably take Stuttgart easily once word of the Reichsarmee’s complete destruction reaches them. And the only other direction is into the Triunes.
On the plus(?) side Ottokar has no choice now but to join the fight against the Triunes. His main two rivals for the throne are dead and at this rate the Triunes will take much more than the Rhine.....
Jokes aside, Elizabeth should come to her senses and set aside all of her remaining pride to both appease Rhomania and secure her survival.
Not to mention I have a feeling that the Triune merchant class is not going to come out of this one is all that great a shape, nor the Triune's eastern colonies.I would not count Germany out that fast. OK it is more likely than not that Alsace Lorraine is taken by the Triunes. But post that... Just thinking out loud.
1. We know suspiciously nothing of the succession situation in the Triple Monarchy. And unless I am mistaken Henri is starting to get pretty old...
2. That German POW in a Greek monastery several chapters ago that was in bad company... what are his whereabouts? Can you spell popular uprising, levee en masse, already invented by the good people of Antioch TTL one notes, new model army and similar funny things, maybe?
3. Lotharingia is of course massively fortified. How many sieges the Triunes army needs to win? How long each siege and how many can be fought simultaneously. In the meantime a goodly chunk of the Triune army is stuck at the wrong end of attritional warfare.
I think they've attacked into Holstein.What's the Empire of All North up these days? Could be an opportunity for them here.
I think this campaign has gone on more than long enough. Rome still has to deal with Ottomans holding interior Syria, Muslim Egypt acting up, the Berber-Maghreb Megagblob continuing to threaten shipping in the Western Med, and possibly shenanigans in the Eastern colonies as well. It's time to go home.
They're invading Germany like everyone else.What's the Empire of All North up these days? Could be an opportunity for them here.

She has but D3 has made it clear, against the advice of several Roman diplomats, he wants to see Germany burn.
No more than all the Wrstern leaders in WWII who essentially wanted to make Germany a giant farm despite the threat of the Soviets on the other side.For a really smart guy D3 is pretty dumb here.
To be clear, I don't feel as if this is the end of Germany so much as it is the end of the HRE. There is simply too much Germany to be completely partitioned in one war, and unless the Triunes are stupidly greedy, they'll probably bite off the Rhineland at most. The North, fundamentally a balancing act as-is, probably can't afford any overly huge occupations of German land. With Hungary's western ambitions sated with the reclamation of Austria and Rhomania's only geopolitical interest in Germany checked off (that being revenge), the Wittelsbachs (or perhaps a ruling dynasty with a more Czech name) will be free to look westward for the foreseeable future.
And when the time comes for revenge against the Triunes, a ton of commercial interests across all of Europe will only be too happy to help...
I think in this case, rather than just a huge serving of steaming-hot revenge (it's not always served cold) D III wants to make the HRE an object lesson.For a really smart guy D3 is pretty dumb here.
