Persian Archer-Spearmen are the best pound for pound fighters in EB.
I also have a soft spot in my heart for Massilian Hoplites. They can be used as either veteran hoplites or as shock infantry and they excel at both.
The Saka Raukan bodyguards also deserve a mention. Besides being the EB equivalent of a Panzer they look like some bizarre combination of pirate/ hell's angel/ 80s Rock star/ mongol.
