Very vague knowledge here but question:
Say the manage to win at Tours, the big problem is that their supply lines cannot extend to the Rhine, right? But what if they could extend their supply lines, say through Italy? They couldn't get Constantinople, could they try to get Italy instead? An assault via Sicily or the Alps could be possible and would allow them control of the Mediterranean.
