The selucids employed all of them.For silver shields, first they were full pikemen, the main force of the selucids, then swordsmen roman legion style before their fall to the roman empire. For indian war elephants the selucids actually breed them for their armies. As for cataphracts they took that style of cavalry unit from the parthians recognizing its merits.
As for the nation instead selucid leaders created a lot of hellenic settlements in the empire, trying to hellenize the population, again for the armies and internal peace, they were however a very multiculural nation, and they inherited a huge chunk of alexanders empire specifically the former persian (far eastern and middle eastern) lands and the shatrapies were the empires vassals.
For unique ability and unit I would look there. Sorry for being a smartass. :)
Athough putting the UB into the context of history, it makes sense for it to retain maintenance costs and lead to financial disaster, as you have said.
Anyway, I am gonna give it a try despite the Courthouse replacement (not really fitting my gameplay).
:)
However, now I have dilemma - which civ should be in the East in the rise of Rome scenario (III century BC) - Parthia or Seleucid Empire? :(
