Does anyone use this fortress? I have never seen it played and wondered why? Doesn't it protect you from evil cards?

You have a point. If "Hero is protected from effect" he should also be protected once he returns to the territory. This could be broken.

Protecting from everything? Yeah, superbroken.

That's a good point. It does need play-as (not errata, because as written it's merely ambiguous, not definitively the way you're saying it works).

Actually, the reason I've never played w/ this fortress or seen anybody else use it is because I always thought it never worked. That 'Hero is protected from effect' part of the ability should also protect the Hero from returning to territory.

Prof Alstad played it last year in Teams at Regionals.

I think the protected from effect part would protect from your opponent but i don't know because sometimes you can't effect your own cards.
