Be friends with England and let them take over Scotland, marry into their royal famliy and then work with them to take out France and/or the holy roman empire, depending on who they go after first.

its impossible to take them over?

I would ally England at first, keep them as friends. Then pwn Scotland. By then, you have about as much regions as England. I even believe u will have more. So that makes u probably more superior in money. Perhaps then its a good time to attack them?

I would approach this differently, I would ally with the Scottish, an Irishman ally with the English, shame on you all! The Scots will attack the North and draw English armies towards them. Meanwhile you attack Caernarvon and cease yourself a very important castle and base point, where you can attack middle England. If your money allows a seaborne invasion of SW England and cease the Exeter at the same time and push westwards, towards Winchester. One thing for sure is the English will fallout with the Scots and the French, so they usually get themselves excommunicated.
The British Isles may certainly be invaded by the Danes and the Norsemen, so alliances here are essential

The best way to take out England as the Irish or any faction really is to take Nottingham as soon as possible. With Nottingham YOU will control the highest level army's on the British Isles. After that if you can take york your back will be covered by the Scottish (who knows how long though)
