Yes, that's exactly what it means. Some castles are stronger, some are weaker...

I asked the question incorrectly... (Which castles are considered strong, and which are considered weak?)

There are no weak castles. It's just that some are more difficult to play with.

It all depends on the map you're playing on.
For example, on some M-U maps, the Tower is considered one of the strongest Castles. Why? Because it always has a native secondary Castle without a Fort. And this means a good bonus for your main stack - Gremlins.
But on larger maps, the Tower usually doesn't make it into the top three.
One of the most stable Castles, good on most maps, is the Castle. It has the largest variety of buildings, excellent troops at almost all levels, an increased bonus for the external stable, the ability to create both ranged and melee main stacks, and so on.
The Rampart is also a versatile Castle. It has troops to suit every taste, fast or durable, and good damage-dealing ranged units.
But the Dungeon is very dependent on both the map and the setup. The presence or absence of a key resource node. The richness of the map and the starting difficulty level. I remember playing against an equal opponent, and my secondary Castle was developed to the same level as his main Castle, while his main Castle already had Manors (the game was at 200%). He was just unlucky. Therefore, the Dungeon is not as versatile a Castle as the previous two. Besides, the Dungeon is quite heavily dependent on Shakti; if there is no Shakti, it can be difficult to advance on a resource-poor map at 200%.
The Swamp also depends on the map. In principle, it's a strong Castle, but it requires tactical skill, and its strength increases significantly if there are many Hives - because you can upgrade Wyverns, and morale doesn't decrease!
The Stronghold is an ambiguous Castle; on resource-poor maps at 200%, there may be difficulties at the start. After all, it's an attacking Castle, but you need something to attack with! In the unedited version, considering the number of Goblins and Wolves, it's not an easy choice. But almost always, Birds are built, and several times I've built 117 creatures on a 200% map!
The Inferno. On resource-poor maps, there are problems with the start. In general, playing with this Castle requires a certain level of preparation; it's not that simple. Ifrits do wonders on the first level, of course, but you can't play the Inferno mediocrely. Either you have to play it well, or you should exclude it. In difficult situations, it makes sense to think about "small Hydras."
The Necropolis and the Conflux. Don't play them yourself or let your opponent have them in the early game. It makes sense to first gain experience playing with the Necropolis and Conflux heroes, and then switch to the Castle. In games that don't have tournament significance, be sure to try playing as the Moon, as often as possible. Also, in several games, you can use a Necro strategy; this is something that every player should have in their arsenal. However, in my opinion, it shouldn't be a universal weapon; sooner or later, you'll pay the price.

Conclusion: decide on the map. On almost any map, the Castle will be a good choice. The Rampart will also work in many cases. Don't let your opponent have the Necropolis or the Conflux.

Everything depends on the map being used.
For example, on a number of M-U maps, the Tower is considered one of the strongest Castles. Why? Because it always has a native secondary Castle without a Fort. And this means a good bonus for the attacking stack – Gremlins.
But on larger maps, the Tower usually doesn't make it into the top three favorites.
One of the most stable Castles, good on most maps, is the Castle. It has the largest selection of buildings, excellent troops at almost all levels, increased importance of the external stable, the possibility of both ranged and melee attacking stacks, and so on.
The Rampart is also a versatile Castle. It has troops to suit every taste, fast or durable, and good damage-dealing ranged units.
But the Dungeon is very dependent on both the map and the setup. The presence or absence of a key resource location. The richness of the map and the starting difficulty level. I remember playing against an equal opponent, and my secondary Castle at level 117 was as developed as his main Castle, while my main Castle already had Manors (the game was at 200%). He was just unlucky. Therefore, the Dungeon is not as versatile a Castle as the previous two. Besides, the Dungeon is quite strongly tied to Shakti; if Shakti is not available, it can be difficult to progress on a resource-poor map at 200%.
The Swamp also depends on the map. In principle, it's a strong Castle, but it requires tactical skill, and its strength increases significantly if there are many Hives – because you can upgrade Wyverns, and morale doesn't decrease!
The Stronghold. An ambiguous Castle; on poor maps at 200%, there may be difficulties at the start. After all, it's an attacking Castle, but you need something to attack with! In the un-nerfed version, considering the number of Goblins and Wolves, it's not an easy choice. But almost always, Birds are used, and several times I've placed 117 creatures on level 117 at 200%.

Thank you for the detailed explanation.

I had regular trees in my army, and the Thieves' Guild indicated that they were my best warriors. Then I built an Enchanted Fountain, hired Pegasuses, and the Guild immediately started showing that they were now the strongest. Question: why? After all, the trees are at a higher level, and their attack power is more impressive...

Check it out on FizMig. As far as I remember, the Thieves' Guild doesn't necessarily give you the strongest hero/monster, but rather either the army that isn't hidden in a castle or the largest army (while weaker units might be hidden in a town, and a strong army with pegasi might belong to a random level 1 hero). Something like that.

Thank you! It turns out that the computer rates pegasuses higher than dendroids, by 1 point.

Could you please tell me the name of the utility that obscures the movement of an enemy unit during battle?

This isn't a utility; you simply look at a creature in HD mode by holding down Ctrl, and the cells it can move to become darkened.

What is "aas"? I think it refers to a scout (secondary hero). Is that correct?
Usually, Maretti uses this abbreviation. aas = archangels

Hello everyone!
Could you tell me how to add a button to replay the auto-battle manually? That is, if you are not satisfied with how the computer conducted the battle, you click the button and do everything yourself.
Auto-translated
Install this program. Enable the HD+ option.
Auto-translated
Does version 2.98f have HD+?
Auto-translated
Nope. If needed, I can send you a later version without HD+, but with a replayable quick battle mode.
