Plan A: England, Castille or Holland, for world wide trade/colonizing.
Plan B: One of the Italian states for Italian unification
Plan C: Burgundy ... should be more fun w/ the new CB system.

Well it'm perplexed to say the least 
but as it is now it's between Austria, Hansa, Tuscany and... Navarra! they're a 2 province minor now!!!!

It will definitely be Austria. I cannot resist the urge to tighten the Habsburg reins of power over the Holy Roman Empire, and use the new dynasty system for all of its marital worth ... and crush a few vile Protestants while I'm at it.
Easier to check it when not playing it...the big bad blob , to see how it's been nerved
I think I'll try the Hansa, to see how the new trading system works..
Other options will be Saxon or the Byz (for some reason i love OPM's)

It's an awesome trading nation. Even though you only get 10 ducats per year, you get very nice slide moves (+4 Free Trade) which makes it the nation with the highest compete chance, unlike Hansa or Venezia. With inflation reduction advisers I managed to get 110 ducats per year in 1500. Also, since you have lost of merchants placed in CoTs you have a nice culture tradition bonus so you can replace the inflation advisers easily in case of their unfortunate death.
First Austria for the new HRE, then probably Japan to see if anything new is there, then likely Saxony or another of my favourite nations.
I did the Hansa in the demo, don't like the trade state that much.

Possibly an Irish OPM, or a go as a powerful Italian city-state. I like TO as well... maybe an Iberian kingdom, or perhaps a HR elector.
Wait for MM to get ported to HTTT, then my first game will be with Genoa to create a Genoan empire in Ukraine. After that, Sweden
England. Or maybe Austria for the new HRE stuff. Or Venice. Or or or... It's gonna take a year to get through all the campaigns I have in mind...
Burgundy!
France and Austria will learn their place under the benevolent rule of Burgundian Emperors.
