Hi @Gilrandir,
...pity you don´t start in early - you could get those fine Swabian Swordsmen, but only available in early....
for those ItalianInf I mainly used Archers and Crossbows - no need to end on the tip of their weapons.
Head North, get Pomerania, Denmark, Sweden and Norway for the riches of trade (and iron in Sweden) - as HRE you´ll need every Florin you can get for teching up.
I´d choose the English to pick at - if you get the islands there is chance for naval domination. Teched up, the french shouldn´t be a problem after that.
Never having started in "High" I don´t know if the slavs will be able to break the Horde´s onslaught - having started in "Early", they never were.
I wish you happy fighting along,
greetings daigaku
