Iulian,
Your idea of the Sassanid army is wrong. Your view of the Roman army is wrong as well. You are making it sound like both armies are just a whole bunch of poor peasants like in the Old Persian army. Also, you have no sources. You should read more about the Romans, and you will find that the Auxilia were professionals too! Read more on the Sassinids too and you will find that they di field heavy infantry. Where did you get this idea of the Sassanid army not being a good fighting force? They were a perfectly capable army with all types of infantry and cavalry. Where is your information from besides from your own opinions?
Ask Nadeem for more info. He will tell you that the Sassanids had heavy infantry and were not just conscripts.
