The Immortals were mostly "renowned" for losing big time against the Greeks. On the other hand, Parthian and later Persian Cataphract armies annihilated Crassus and fought all Roman Emperors who tried something and even the master general Belisarius to a standstill.
Brush up your historical knowledge, before I am going to take any lessons in your history class.

Hmm. How could they stop the Romans, when, at that time, Persia had been conquered (by Alexander the Great), and by that time under the rule of the hellenistic Seleucid dynasty??? Do you know something I don't??? 
I don't think the "Immortals" should be a UU. They were a unit of 10.000 men. The Elite Unit of Persia. You can't build several of them!!?
