What to do with the Ottomans?

[fighter36]

Playing my first campaign after purchasing this little gem on Friday. I just finished the first Strat phase and was able to take most of Belgium, cause the French so headaches and hold my ground against the Russians, while inflicting heavy casualities.

I was notified at the end of my last impulse that the Ottomans have joined the war on my side. What is best to do with them? Go after Russia? Attack Egypt?

Thanks for any tips!

The Ottomans are most important as a giver of resources to Germany after Bulgaria has joined and a land link has been established. So don't let the Russians or Brits get the resource hexes, the Kaiser needs those.

Being new this might be the best use of the Ottomans since their offensive points are so badly limited that they really can't do much on the offensive end of things. I have used their limited points to take Batum/Kars and the oil hex in the Caucuses.
