Not everyone has that opportunity, and you still need to know how to play.

As for the Rampart, it's a rather problematic castle in terms of construction and playability. 3 armies are quickly depleted. It becomes more interesting to play with the starting hero, Jelu.

Guys, read the forum carefully or at least a couple of reports in the online game report thread. What Jelu? Kirra is one of the best heroes, or at worst, Ivor, and Mephala.
There is no problem at all. On the contrary, it is a very powerful castle, especially in terms of price-quality. It can just be a little difficult to start without elves (or rather, with 7 of them). But that's not a problem either; you can immediately grab some creatures and get a pretty strong stack for breaking through. And crypts work well against them.
