Let's imagine you are in charge of Germany in 1914, how would you conduct the war, according to the Schliffen Plan or make up your own strategy. For me I would keep to the defensive in the West and let the French bleed themselves white by attacking heavily fortified forts and strongholds, by not invading through Belgium, England stays out of the war, I would bring all my forces to bear against the weaker and more unstable Russia and use envelopment and flanking strategy to encircle the Russians as was done in WW2 and knock them out in a quick war and then bring my combined forces against a weakened French defense.
