What was your first castle in Heroes 3?

Before Heroes of Might and Magic III, I played Heroes of Might and Magic II, but so little that, in principle, Heroes of Might and Magic III was the game that truly introduced me to this wonderful genre!
I started playing as Rampart, I don't know why, but for some reason, I came to love Rampart in the early stages of the game! To this day, I haven't lost (or played) a single battle in the Campaigns, and I rarely played against bots; we almost always played with a friend on one computer (now we play online). So, my favorite Castle initially was Rampart, especially because of the archers and dwarves! My friend, on the other hand, loved Swamp Castle. He probably liked it because of its defense! But when we started playing on higher levels and became well-versed in Heroes of Might and Magic III, our priorities changed! Now I love Dungeon. He, on the other hand, loves Tower. Of course, we only play with these Castles on large maps; otherwise, it's either Swamp or Stronghold! By the way, Dungeon is a very complex city; it's difficult to develop, requires a lot of resources, and has a linear development path. But despite that, I almost always do well with it, but only on large maps!

P.S. I see that many people write that they chose cities because of their beauty, design, etc. I don't know why, but when we were just starting to play, we chose Castles based on their strength and tactics...
