Nobody is proposing a war to the knife here, what this thread is about is making Britain clearly and unequivocally lose and make major concessions to the CP.
And I propose something different: Status quo ante bellum with Britain and the CP force major concessions from other Entente powers. Maybe we even have to assume status quo ante in all of the western front. Since this means that France fails to win back A-L and Brest-Litowsk remains in force.
That means being able to really hurt the UK, which means threatening important interests, Suez is about the easiest one to threaten, with Malta and Cyprus being less vital, but easier to threaten. A more exhausted Britain is more likely to go to terms, rather than try to fight it out in the Eastern Med with light units for awhile, and try to wait out CP internal problems
Britain is far superior in the colonial theatre and has a convenient Channel to protect herself from the continent. I just cannot see how to force major concessions from Britain.
