That's because having done enough castling of my own, and played against fellow castlers that I trained, I'm familiar with the techniques for kicking in the doors and taking over the castle. Castles are not impregnable....but they *DO* impede anything other than serious attack: No more raiding.
It can greatly slow the advance of an enemy army, giving you time to regroup. However, if you have nothing to regroup WITH, then what's the point?
