    I really like the Iberian units and sometimes wonder whether they were the only real infantry which could have beaten the Romans, that is if the Spanish peninsula were united before the Romans obtained too much territory.

    Iberian assault infantry (good against everyone)
    Iberian Medium spearmen (good against everyone except super heavy infantry)
    Lusotana light infantry/Balearic light infantry (for being mix of AP units and skirmishers)

    Other special units:

    Milnaht and Mori Gaesum if their unit spacing were broader.
    Gallic aux cavalry for being Leuce Eipos missile proof.
    Rhaetic axemen/Alpine phalanx for being cheap professional troops.

    Usually the extreme elite units, I just can form a decent royal army without them.

    I once recruited an Army of 1 Velorix, 16 Two handed Swordsmen, and 3 Remi Marepos.

    It tears EVERYTHING to Shreds.

    I'd like to fire some arrows against that army.

    Anyways, my fave unit would be the Keltohellenikoi Hoplitai. Perhaps the most cost-efficient unit in the game, alongside THraikioi Peltastai.

    If you don't count their (relatively) horrible morale (both under 13).
