It gets awfully boring killing fullstacks with only horse archers and cataphracts, and throwing in an incredibly weak line helps spices up things quite a bit, especially since it is subject to crumbling instantly versus a heavy cavalry charge. Makes it even more fun and challenging because the East is absolutely saturated with Heavy Cav.....and the occasional elephant!
Heavy cavalry and the occasional elephant? Now I know why they call you GRADE A BEEF!

But yeah, what do you expect with Pahlava? Weak line! Are you picturing a line full of hoplites?
