The values probably get overwritten because the game mirrors them in main RAM.
One easy way to get around this problem is to open nvram/ccastles/nvram_4b outside MAME in a hex editor, since X2212 has nonvolatile backup for its own SRAM. Editing it is not so simple: the game code stores three copies of the same data, with simple XOR modifications, to check its integrity. Also keep in mind that this memory type is only 4 bits wide; in this case, the high nibbles are in 4A and the low nibbles are in 4B.
