but I haven't played Ottomans or Spain yet, based on this thread theyre my next picks.
I beg to differ. I'm in the middle of my first EtW grand campaign as Prussia playing H/H. It has been suprisingly easy to play as them. I just spent the first 10 years teching up and working on my ecomoy. Then I spent the next 10 steamrolling through Poland, Austria, and several minor factions. While being at war with 8 factions at one time, not one faction has made an attempt to take over any one of my cities. I haven't even had any economic or social difficulties.

I think Austria would be much harder honestly, because they are much more spread out, and it would take longer to react militarily to any threats. Also, Prussia's line infranty rock, Austria's suck (reloading skill of 20).
