Well the Imperial Warrior comp has benn run, and I can attest to the
ability of Fulcrum to withstand cavalry charges.
The comp had a terrain theme, as well as requiring armies to come
from the Imperial list. So lots of terrani for Roman auxiliaries,
and the ability of legions to fill the gaps.
In four games my Sassanids faced 3 Early Imperial's and 1 Later.
In 12 charges at legions, seeing as I couldn't effectively get to the
auxilia, my EHC and SHC bounced almost every time. They recoiled
only one Legion (in the final bound so couldn't be taken advantage
of) and the only Legion that broke was the Later (on contact - no
fulcrum).
My best chance was charging 2 EHC units downhill at a single legion -
unfortunately my SG threw a catastrophy, and the entire Irr B command
(4 more EHC and SHC units), lined up nearby to take advantage of the
recoil and to charge the nearby and sure to be exposed auxilia unit,
all threw either 1 or 2 1's and all shook or broke.
