The 2 fist legs In FR CAN be done on local TER trains=without any RES (both routes ev 2 hrs) but that will take much longer-you can simply use the option on app/planner ´trains without RES´.
Direct Ly->N has very few trains-more choice of you change in Marseille to local TER, from there over same rails anyway.
I assume this Rmag is in the 5 earth? Then change: go direct from there along coast to Roma-then Fir-then Vnz.
You also did not clearly state for When-when its after summer, from sept, from Wien onward simply do not bother-its all otpional-but B-Ams can get pretty full with noisy pasholders large groups in summer.
Ams->P is direct and hi-cost on hi-speed Thalys-again cut the cost and go via Antwerpen-Lille (changes) and use FRench TGV from there.

thanks for this! Yes the later half of my trip is in the off season, so hopefully i can get away with reserving only the “musts”!
I will look into the Nice routes you suggested!
