I don't think he is playable in HIP. Both Breizh and Francia declare Holy War within a month or two and well before Haesteinn can get anywhere, be it with Prepared Invasion or however. Anybody willing to try get somewhere as Haesteinn?
Haesteinn of Nantes

Never surrender! If I wanted to play a catholic ruler I'd select a catholic ruler from the start, to be honest.

Increase his starting troop levels. You can find them in the Norse character history file. Yes, it's hard to play as him as currently constituted. However, Haestein was a pirate and, in history, was jettisoned around the Old Gods start date of France by combined Breton and Frankish forces.
Which kinda is historically accurate. According to some sources, he was even a son or Ragnarr Loðbrók, or was his friend who helped and mentored Ragnarr's son, probably Björn Ironside, since according to some sources, he accompanied Björn on their expedition into the Mediterranean. However, in 882 he was defeated and moved first somewhere in the Siene relgion, and after moved to England.
In my opinion he should not be made undefeatable, but he should be having at least 5-6k troops at the start.
