1. Tower - the shooters are many and powerful. Although resource cost can kill (literally) on smaller maps.
2. Rampart - Dendroids are extremely powerful if slow. Nice fast units. Treasury will win the game on larger resource poor maps, you just need to be patient and hopefully survive the early middle game.
3. Fortress - The special abilities of the creatures are great at winning a fight. If you add tactics and air magic/haste, they are soo much fun. You can enjoy watching your opponents crumble. Don't underextimate the power of level 1 spells. I rarely use anything above level 2 spells in HOMM 3.
4. Castle - don't like the human aspect, but archangels are tough and the monks are good shooters.
5. Inferno - The lack of shooters (Magogs area attack can be so aggrevating) hurts my normal strategies, but with Devils the ranged are almost unnecessary.
6. Necropolis - Vampires are great and liches have all the bonuses of Magog area attack without the drawback due to undead units.
7. Dungeon - Never been a fan of black dragons, they just grate on me somehow. If it weren't for that they would be much higher.
8. Stronghold - They are just to darn expensive. Why so much crystal and nothing else.
As for the Conflux - Never played the expansions too much, so I can't really rank them

1. The Tower rocks. Genies cast spells, Arch Magi reduce spell casting cost, and Titans rock.
2. Castle is also pretty cool.
3. Necropolis is o.k., but probably my least favorite. Zombies are useless. Liches are ugly. Vampire Lords are kinda cool, though. So are the Death Knights. Ghost Dragons are sissies.
4. Conflux is cool when you get the Grail, and get all spells. Sprites, Storm Elementals and Ice Elementals are fairly cheap, and decent lower-level characters. Sprites are probably the best level-1 characters.
5. Fortress is better than Stronghold. Mighty Gorgons' death stare, Wyvern Monarchs' poison, Dragonfly's dispel & cast Weakness. The only cool Stronghold creature is Ogre Mage.

Are liches ugly?
Well... at least comparing to the Bone/Ghost Dragons, Power Liches are simply beautiful. And they're cool too. What is bad in Necropolis is Zombies, Wraiths and Bonies. Skeletons are good because of the Necromancy. And Vamp. Lords, Liches and Dread Knights rule. So I would rate this town as 4th in my list.

But Stronghold has lack of spells !
Ahh... I see. You're a magic lover. That's why Tower is you 2nd favourite! Well, no doubt magic is good and sometimes it beats might, but... rarely 
In fact, nothing will save Tower from Barbarian invasion on week 2 or 3. 
Strange...but in the second week i normally havve a lightning bolt that does around 2-300 damage. Then what is your Behemoths???!!!
I like Inferno the most. Not because its very powerful, but because its fun to play. When i want power i play Dungeon. I cant remember that ive lost when i get arma with this town  Necro is a clear nuber 3. Mainly cause of the vampires. With the animate hero the vampires are extremely hard to kill. When it comes to the question: Fortress or stronghold I like the fortress. Tazar and fortress rules. I dont like tower, cause its boring, and solmyr is not! as powerful as everyone think i think. When i play i choose a sorcery hero instead. Chain lightning isnt the spell i like the most, and if my sorcery hero gets chain lightning he will do more damage with it than solmyr! I dont think any town is more powerful than another. Its all up to the player and hes strategies.

Between 2-300 damage? I doubt 5 points of damage would kill a behemoth!

Magic can't beat might? And how do you get Behemoths in week 2 anyhow?
I'll take magic over might any day. The only way it fails is with the Orb of Inhibition.

Pretty easy actually...and mostly on day 2. Build roc and then behemoth dwelling. That's on normal or hard can almost always be done. On expert and impossible, probably not day 2(or 3-if there's no wolf rider's dwelling) but in first week for sure...well not for sure on impossible but pretty close...

You're right! Sorcery guy can easier clear mines than that stupid, no good, sonovasnow Solmyr...chain lightning?! Bah...overrated...

Rampart is kinda powerful. The grand elves really rocks! However i dont like the goldies, cause of the fact that theyre immune to ressurection, but not implosion! Another negative thing with rampart is the heroes (and then i mean the magic ones) I usually dont play with might heroes as my main, but rampart forces me to do this. Those druids sucks! Whats the point in having a magic hero like Alagar when he doesnt gain enough power skill? I had a level 14 alagar with only 4 in spell power (kinda extreme, but that happens on maps with few magic powerups). By the way, I also have to say that this town rulez for any might lover

I recently play with the dungeon and they were awesome.
1. Castle. Yes they were sucks. But do you pay attention to the heroes they got. They were all are beautiful people (except Cuthbert)!
2. Inferno. I just love those pit lord. They were cool. And the Castle gate help you a lot.
3. Rampart. Those grand elf are fascinating army plus if you got Gelu you can get yourself sharpshooter.
4. Necropolis. My fave creature Dark Knight. They blow attack are simply deadly. Plus the necromancer skill give you the skeleton without cost.
5. Stronghold. I love the Thunder Bird. But it was the only thing I love from Stronghold.
6. Tower. My third best town. Specially if you got Solmyr in your hand. Chain lightning are rocks.
7. Fortress. I agree with you all. They creature special ability are just plain deadly. And I just love the Dragon fly. But lizardmen are suck!
8. Dungeon. Cool town. Scary grail. Got portal summoning, battle schoolar academy, immune to all spells Black Dragon. Queen Medusa who can turn you into rock, frightening manticore. 5 level mage, mana vortex which double up your spell power. Need I say more?
9. Conflux. only one word. I love them!!

Conflux: Overpowered.
Castle: Overpowered.
Dungeon: 3.rd best town because a bit expensive.
Tower: Average town.
Rampart: Average town.
Necropolis: Most overrated town. Slighly below average.
Fortress: Good only poor maps. Below average
Stronghold: weak town.
Inferno: incredibly weak. No high level shooter no low level flyer. Bad heroes. Expensive. Very fragile units.

No, but it is a little annoying you bring back several different threads only to repeat what you already wrote.
