It's not the six arms that constitute this faction, but the half-snake aspect. It's not Warcraft that invented this race and the world of Heroes includes Naga as a race now, and it does have the biggest chances to be the 5th faction.

I am thinking there will be a jungle town; there is a jungle tileset, and the only time there's been a tileset without a town that tileset has appeared marginally at most, or been water.
Not really sure what a jungle town would look like; I'm hoping it would be aztec-themed, and I would also prefer lizardmen over nagas; nagas don't do much for me as a race.

All three sound good but most of all I would like a only dragon faction. Still I think that it's probably going to be the Faceless.

Don't think that we will see the Faceless as a faction of it's own. There are hardly any left after the war with the Angels. I wuld expect them to end as the Champion for Dungeon (since dragons are no longer actual units, they need to find a new unit for the faction, and the Faceless seem like a good choice.)
As for the Dragon Knights, they're an order within Ashan, combining heroes from all the factions. I do not understand why does anybody think of them as of actual dragons. Tieru from the HeroesV campaign was a Dragon Knight, and so was Anton, from Clash of Heroes. The first being an elf, and the later a human, I rest my case.
The most probable choice for the fifth faction is of course Sanctuary (the Nagas), for many different resons, most of which you know about already

Yeah, and some music composer mentioned that he was going today Asian-styled music for H6 plus the Jungle terrain has lots of snakes and stuff on it. Everything points at Naga, and I think a lot of people would be very disappointed if the Naga did not become a faction.
After Naga, Faceless seem like the most likely.
I had an idea for Dragon Knights which was set after Dark Messiah (evil ending) that basically, Asha had blessed them to become different types of dragonkin so that there would not be another Haven 2.0 with dragons instead of Griffins and Angels.

If there's a naga faction I'm ditching the whole gaming thing and going to go do some headhunting...
We already had Orc/Dwarf/ELF TIMES TWO factions in H5...

Faceless are too few to base a faction on.
Same thing with Dragon Knights, they don't make fricking armies, they're like the special agents of Ashan.
Personally I think it'll be a Naga faction, though I don't think it'll be that interesting.
I'd much rather see something a bit similar to the H3 Fortress, though led by humans instead of Lizardmen *cough cough*

I wouldn't necessarily read too much into the "Asian-styled music" comment (where did you see that, by the way? Just curious) as I don't think that would necessarily dictate an asian-styled town. At least in the past, the HoMM town themes have never seemed to really dictate the architectural style.
To be honest, I'd be kind of disappointed if the naga did become a faction; I want lizardmen.

I think without knowing of course that with the previous factions in our mind that the other factions will be classic Heroes factions with the new twist .
for intances
an elven faction - but with new creatures, but still with the old ones like druids and unicorns.
It is only a guess
but lets think about it, Necro, haven, dungeon - all we need is Tower and Rampart(sylvan) - classic.
Tower is almost destined to be. they also made some indications - mentioning the Wizards in the Necro Lamusa description - and they mentioned tigers and wolves in the Ceberus description, those could be sylvan or neutral creatures. So I think it will be classic factions with the new unit twist

That will be a huge letdown except if somehow the faction is uber in every way which I can't see happening.

I don't get it either. People around here have had the strangest obsession with nagas. Why one unit from one kingdom deserves its entire kingdom, is beyond me, especially after we got to see the Dwarven and Elven kingdoms.
I miss the days where he had a castle, stronghold, dungeon, fortress, necropolis, academy, asylum, and inferno. Now we are stuck with the humans, undead, demonic, generic elf nation, and orcs.

Because lorewise they are the strongest candidate, after that the faceless. But that's only lorewise. Plus we already have naga "materials" lying around in H5 files.

Lorewise? What lore? Nival pretty much threw away the well-established mythology of the series so they could incorporate their so original dragon pantheon.
And we can't forget Isabel...

I guess you have been living under a rock or something.
Naga are a major race in the Ashan lore. They were even planned as a faction for H5 as there are tons of files, unfinished models and some concept art for the SANCTUARY town.
There has been a lot of concept art for them and they look totally different from the Warcraft Naga.

I know there is concept art for them. As much as I hate to say it, I would have rather seen the stupid snake people over the stupid dark elves. But God forbid we don't have scantly-clad skanks running around our fantasy games. As to Ashan lore, I don't give a flying flip about it. If I want to know the why of something, I know some stupid dragon is behind it. Right now I'm thankful the Dragon of Electricity is allowing me to use a laptop.
Even if there is concept art for the lame faction, it doesn't explain the rabid yearning people seem to have for it.

Because the concept art of them is very creative and completly new to the Heroes universe. We have never had an Asian-styled faction before and most other games have Naga as some kind of Atlantis-based race but here they have really found a unique style for them which people seem to really like.
