Without the Channel ports, I may guess?
Its a big deal if the Germans can close the Seine above Paris at Rouen or wherever, in whatever Blucher attack they launch, to close off access to Le Harve.
Then its Cherbourg and the Atlantic ports for supply. Fortunately the Germans only have so many attack worthy divisions and so much supply. Which the Germans have to move out of the George attack area to the south. (it would be helpful to the Germans if they captured a bunch of supply in George).
It probably makes sense for the Austrians not to do the Piave offensive and send a few good divisions to the western front at this point. Follow success.
It also makes sense for the Germans to try and get the Dover Barrage cleaned up in a channel covered by coastal artillery to get their still numerous number of submarines freedom of movement, and focus on the French ports, instead of trade into Great Britain. Lots of everything has to be shipped into France since much of the French industrial are is captured.
This is where German diplomacy has to get smart with a peace offensive from a position of strength. Get the British on board first, If the British can pick up some colonial gains, increase the security of the Suez canal, restore France and Belgium to 1914 boundaries, maybe get a naval building holiday, the British can call it a victory, even if the Germans are in the Ukraine (the Ukraine is worth 100 times to Germany any crappy colony).
