What was your first castle in Heroes 3?

I first saw Heroes of Might and Magic II about two years ago. My brother bought it and installed it on my computer. I watched him play and thought, "This game is kind of boring." At first, we played together, or rather, he played, and I tried to (I had already seen how he played; he would choose Necropolis and the hero Tanta). I chose what my brother used to play. I didn't know how to play at all, and even with a superior army, I sometimes lost. I was just annoyed when my brother tried to teach me how to fight. I didn't understand why I should even press the "WAIT" button, and he would get angry, saying I was an idiot. Later, I started playing, and now, two years later, I can beat both my brother and a friend. I got acquainted with In the Wake of Gods about six months ago, and I really enjoyed fishing in the wells.
