Everything yo need to know about upcoming infantry units to be included in this mod.

Looks nice, though I have two minor suggestions:
I think Trandoshans make more sense as special unit only for the CIS, Trandosha didn't openly join them, but Trando mercenaries and slavers famously fought on the Speperatist side against the Wookies.
They are imho more prominent as speperatist fighters than the Mandalorians.
Secondly, and this is only referring to the two images you used, there were no ARC sergeants aside from A'den of the Nulls. ARC troopers with the rank of Commander with yellow armor were also quite rare to the point where it is debatable if they were a thing as well. The few sources of ARC Commanders I know of are of debatable canonicity (like an action figure of one existing).
But looking good overall.
Yeah, I don't even think that the Republic would hire Trandoshan slavers, even with their moral decline.
I had originally placed the trandos under the CIS roster in my earlier drafts, seeing as how they lack commando units and would be a good counter against the RCs but ended up deciding against it when trying to fill a roster for mercenary units. The Mandalorian protectors I thought would be nice to include as they're widely forgotten during this era of Legends and because Spar will be an available hero unit on certain story driven GC maps. I may end up deciding against this decision later and bring the Trandos back under the CIS
As for the ARCs, it's merely the images I chose that contain the sergeant ARC troopers. The models I have permission to use currently are only lieutenants and captains. A typical ARC squad will consist of 1 captain and 4 lieutenants. Fordo's squad will have him and 9 lieutenants.
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Looks really good.
I like the Republic Militia and the plans CIS organic troops.
It will be good to show that the clones weren't the only ones fighting.
I would also like to add my 2cents on the Trando issue.
I agree that they fit the CIS much better then Rep (I mean the RC game has Tandos fighting with the CIS), the only exception is if you wanted to ad an order 66 mechanic and have the Rep turn into the Emp.
Otherwise I think they belong on the CIS side, though if you wanted to counter them you could add Wookie irregulars or some such to the Rep.
One final question on Rep troops, will you include any of the trooper types from the Ep3 game?
Wookiee irregulars are a fantastic idea. And while I would love to add Blaze troopers and clone assasins to the mod, I lack the modeling capabilities to make those units at this time.
Happy to help
Yeah they would be hard, though a short cut might be to look at Fett (for the flame troopers) and Urai for the assassins. But you would still need to make the models and that would no doubt be really hard
