Race: 6 (The mix of nagas and lizardmen are interesting, as well as the “controlled by dark powers“ idea. I would have liked to see just a little more description of culture, architecture, lifestyle and society - to make these races truly come to life.)
History: 6 (Your history is original and interesting: discarded (but noble) races thirsting for revenge, and then being taken over by even darker powers - if I get it right. Because on the downside I find your history somewhat unclear and difficult to follow. It also has some inconsistensies with the H5 timeline and history. If sar-elam (in your version) did create and discard races, you should go into some more detail to explain this.)
Creatures: 9 (Your creatures form a consistent but varied lineup. Creature abilities are very original and very fitting to the creatures (the Crab Golem being the best example of this). This is the rating where I“m gonna praise you for your fine ideas on creatures...)
Balance: 4 (... And this is the rating where Im gonna judge you for not balancing your great ideas properly. Elemental Benefit is tactically interesting, forcing people to rethink their strategies - but it is also VERY powerfull. It needs some serious balancing to work. The Imperial Blader (many strengts and thousand cuts ability, no weaknesses) is also very powerfull - as is the High Tide ability and the Crab Golem - just to mention a few of the problems here. You need to work more on balancing your otherwise very original ideas.)
Originality: 10 (Coral Outpost + , seabed movement + , Elemental benefit + (I like the idea even though it is overpowered), town partially hidden underwater + , original history... the list of plusses goes on and on here!)
Overall: 35 A very nice and original town. A little more clarity in description and history - and a little work on balance and this town could be a winner.

Race: 8
Lizardmen and nagas forced into exile by the other races and seeking to retake the land. Good concept.
History: 6
The part with Sandro is a bit far-fetched. How come he was the only one in 1000 years to find the Sanctuary, and how come the lizardmen and nagas allowed him to live (not to mention take the throne)?
Creatures: 8
A solid line-up, would have been a 9 if not for the Crab Golem, which doesn't fit at all IMO.
Balance: 3
Greatly overpowered. The grunts stampede - 10 extra dmg??? they're only L3! The crab's burrow + 2 ranged attackers + Bowyer's poison = the enemy is forced to come forward and take 2xDMG from a level 6 (the crab). The Abyss Demon's Rampage is devastating. 3 turns is more than enough to decide the fate of a battle. And this is only the beginning. When sieging and defending from siege, you faction has a HUGE advantage! With enemy flyers acting as walkers, your town is untakeable. And the tidal wave can see you with all 7 creatures inside your enemy's castle when you're on the offensive. Way too strong!
Originality: 10
Very original in that which concerns abilities, racial traits and especially game mechanics which are the most important part in conceiving a water based faction
BONUS: +1 for covering every aspect needed to completely define a faction.
TOTAL: 36

Could do with a few more creatures, not racial creatures. A few names to change (e.g. droid)

Sanctuary
Race(4 +3 )=7
History(3 +4 )=7
Creatures(3 +4 )=7 crab droids seem out of place
Balance( 2+4 )=6
Originality=6
Total Score= 33
How I graded these:
Race (Originality [1-5]+Compatibility with HOMM5 universe[1-5])
History (How interesting is it to me [1-5] +Compatibility with HOMM5 universe [1-5])
Creatures (Originality [1-5] +Internal Consistency [1-5])
Balance (are the special skills inventive [1-5] + Does it have a variety of flyers, shooters, walkers, spell-casters [1-5]
Originality (all the originality scores added up and divided by two. This means that creativity counts twice. [1-10])
17 to go

Judge rating: 30 or lower.
Good potential and good units lineup, but otherways needs more depth, balancing and integration into HOMM5.
The additional terain level is not sufficiently explained - seems unrealistic. Units are severely overpowered.
Summoning tide on a land battlefield to make lizards "fly" is also questionable.
The idea really appeals to some people but I must judge the compatibility with HOMM5.
