Unfortunately, it's impossible to create new factions, but this can be bypassed:
1) New heroes (let's say, after the human heroes, come the Naga heroes)
2) Start the game with a human castle and a Naga hero
3) Bring the Naga hero to the human castle, and it will transform into a Naga city. As I understand it, the problem lies in choosing from eight factions. It's impossible to add them there. And the first mod for the Sanctuary was precisely a ninth city, which was placed in the map editor.
4) The script only works on the first day of the game and only once.
5) Play as Naga. Profit.
It looks quite feasible, just not very aesthetically pleasing. But, at least, the original factions will remain accessible.

This can be implemented in a scenario. As far as I know, Ogo, the mapmaker, was creating something similar.

There are no Naga dwellings in the Ewa editor; they might appear sometime in the future, but there are Nagas in full force as neutral units, both in the editor and in the regular gameplay.

I know that NCF exists, but if there were a city and dwellings for the Nagas, then the implementation of new cities, as suggested above, would only depend on the script and its testing using the Nagas as an example.

That's right, we need to develop this idea further, because I've suggested something similar several times, and people just say "yeah, it might work" and then it dies down. Is no one interested in creating additional towns without replacing the old ones? Of course, I used Necropolis as an example, but it could be Fortress (swamp), Conflux (elementals), or even Teletubbies. The main thing is not to replace the originals.

The problem is that there are no dwellings. Unfortunately, they need to be created. However, they might be available in that mod for the Naga city.
This is how I envision the Naga city:
1. Everything related to the new city (models on the map, models in the city menu, new buildings, etc.).
2. Naga dwellings (from 1 to 7 and an outpost).
3. Naga heroes with the implemented ability to walk on water if the hero's army consists only of Nagas (for example, give all Nagas the racial ability 'Naga' and create a script that checks if all units in the hero's army are Nagas, and if so, grants the ability to walk on water).
4. If it is not possible to introduce a new racial skill, then link the Naga to the closest faction and create a script that replaces the original faction's city with the Naga city, and all its dwellings with Naga dwellings, if a Naga hero is selected when creating the game.
5. Create a script that changes the original faction's buildings to the Naga city's buildings, so that the Naga city is not just a visual replacement for the original city, but has new units and its own buildings (approximately like the NTBF mod).
6. Unique Naga artifacts.
7. Add everything else that I might have forgotten to mention.

What a workshop... Old Archibald and his projects have finally reached Ashan.

Although the idea of a tech city is good, it needs to be done in a fantasy style, beautifully, and not like the mess the developers of the third game planned.

Nothing will come of the cities. Have you seen the mod [email protected] for the Dark Elf city?

Half of the points are not feasible.

Well, in that case, it's better to make an elementalist city. It exists in the RTF project. The only thing is that you need to duplicate the buildings and units so as not to replace the originals, but the building tree should be Elrath with it, let it be like the original Faction. The point of a different Faction is precisely in the style of new units and a new tactic for playing with them.

IMHO:
The human counterattack ability would suit the Nagas best.
Orcish fortresses, cries, and totems
Conjuration, summoning reinforcements, similar to demons.
The workshop - necromancy with its own units (although, it is unlikely that two tables can be made)
What other Factions?
