    For heavy infantry and cavalry I would recommend any of the Western European factions. France has very good heavy cavalry but I would say that the HRE has better heavy infantry. If you prefer cavalry then go for France. If I remember correctly England is good in both cavalry and heavy infantry but doesn't really excel at both.

    Did you really recommend HRE?

    I hope he knows the whole papal mechanics though.

    Go for HRE and their Gothic cavalry

    I think Denmark is good if you want great heavy infantry and fairly good heavy cavalry. Sicily is good if you want more of a focus on heavy cavalry but decent infantry too, combined with versatile ranged units and such too.

    I'd go with Denmark.

    They seem to be quite isolated. The Holy Roman Empire will be easy to kill once ****ing Milan starts to threaten it.

    England, HRE or France.
