What castle fits what difficulty?

Can someone give me some help with adjusting my playstyle with the diffiulty?

I was thinking, like shakti with trogs is good for impossible, since you allready start with an ok army. Tower is dependant on getting thoose gremlins upgraded, and a litle start reosurces would be good.

Rampart needs thoose elves, and thus need resources also.

Any thought what castles suits wich difficulties best?

The harder difficulty setting the less starting resources. So naturally you'll also want to pick your town type accordingly. If you're playing a single player XL, L or perhaps even M map it doesn't really matter much unless the map contains very few resources (like Warlords). You'll have time enough to build your town and claim resources while scouting. If you need to develop fast with few or no starting resources (small maps), go for the cheap factions: Fortress and Stronghold. The may get strong troops very early and at a low cost (wyverns and rocs)
Dungeon and especially Tower are very expensive and you may have a hard time looking for special resources for their creature dwellings (1 of each for pillar of eyes, or 5 of each for mage tower. Both structures are required for all dwellings of higher levels).
Castle is not that expensive except for portal of glory.
The Necropolis army is quite weak before you get liches or vampire lords. The required structures are quite expensive (10 sulfur or 10 crystal and gems).
The only town type I would not recommend is Tower; units, structures, everything is just so expensive. Besides, i dislike the composition of their army.
