They have called in Tunis to help them out in their war against us.
I end my drilling, I order around 5k mercs in the back of my country to hit their smaller provinces and annex them, and then I stop mothballing my transport fleet.
It’s the Triangle alliance and our various vassals (Moldova and Lucca) vs the Turks and Tunis
24 July – I combine my fleets into one big giant fleet to assault the Strait.
I have fled with my army in Edirne.

21 Sept – Two more northern minors are under our control
28 Sept – After regaining some strength, my Edirne army is now good enough that it has arrived in their capital. I order a barrage to breach the wall with our artillery (this costs MIL monarch power)

6 Dec – Edirne falls, and the army here moves to their capital to break us out of the siege that we are close to winning
15 Dec – The Mamluks takes advantage of the Turkish attention on us and declare their own Reconquest on them. I might consider sending them some war subsidies!

1 Mar – Castile brings in Aragon and forms Spain
My forces arrive from the capital at Edirne and I order a hull breach on the walls. They have a smaller garrison as it hasn’t had a chance to fully rebuild so I’ll assault in next month when my morale has risen
7 April – Every Euro holdings is in the hands of a Triangle Alliance member
15 Apr – Some of my forces have arrived to begin and pick at Turkish holdings. Our warscore is jacking up fast, but I need to up our warscore.
I don’t know when it happened, but Portugal joined our war (I didn’t call them) and they are blitzing Tunis hard, that’s why the warscore is up. They have captured 7 provinces in Tunis and that must be why their Athenian thrust is so small.
25 Apr – More than 40k Commonwealth forces are bleeding into Turkey after me
