I would like to ask if there are any proposals for irregular troopers.
These would be specialists (sharpshooters, spies, pathfinders, scouts). These folks would beyond 'chain of command.'

As far as I know, the only CS proposal of a sharpshooter is my proposal of the EA/DICE Battlefront 2 Tatooine Rebel Specialist http://www.forum.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=102731.
In the game, they are all female but there is nothing that would forbid a man making that costume. The rebel specialists have different costumes depending on the map you play.
Here is a link to a nice Youtube clip that is great for EA/Dice Battlefront 2 characters research. It gives us 360° walkarounds of all the types of Rebel Troopers in the game. Perhaps there is something there that would interest you.

I am trying to do alternative irregulars.
I don't mind the games. I really would like to see alternatives, such as comics, graphic novels, LFL concept art.
I can draw my original character, but i need advise on what RAID costume requirements are needed. I work better visually. I get glazed over if i see too much text. 0_0
I am a visual learner.

I believe her point is there is no Standards set up for any of these yet. If you want to do one, you'd need to work to set up the standards yourself and propose it as a new costume. That means collecting photo refs and analyzing all the details, and proposing text for the new costume standard.
Someone has to do all that work... usually it's the first person (or group of people) who are interested enough in making the new costume, to actually do that work.
Take a look at PArmstr's fantastic proposal thread (the one she linked above) for a shining example of how to do this right.

I am not disputing that. I know PArmstr is doing a great job. It is difficult to use the user interface of the game.

Article II: Costuming Standards of the Legions Charter states what is required of a costume to be eligible for Rebel Legion membership when it does not have an existing costume standard. http://www.rebellegion.com/legion-charter/
Costumes eligible for Rebel Legion membership, that do not have written/posted costume standards must include:
1. Two or more images, head to toe, showing the front and back of the costume being created OR a 360-degree head-to-toe turnaround of the character.
2. Additional images may be included to show detail of the costume being created.
3. Resource material may come from any LFL/Disney licensed sources for the character/costume being created.
4. Additional costume details may come from a detailed text-based description, but must have an accompanying visual reference to be considered for creating a Rebel Legion approved costume.
5. For video games: Player generated/edited costumes for game characters (those that are customizable) are not eligible for consideration for Rebel Legion membership.
I do not read comics and graphic novels or know a good source for LFL concept art so I cannot be of any help in your search if you prefer those types of references. I think making a Star Wars character such as a sharpshooter, spy, pathfinder or scout is a great idea but I think it will be very difficult to find enough references to get it approved with your preferred sources. I would suggest that you either look for the references yourself by going to your local comic book shop or library or find somebody that collects Star Wars comics and graphic novels that could help you with your research.
I wish you good luck with your project.

I will try the path of least resistance. I guess the video games are one path to follow. Trying something 'outside the box' is always a pain.
2020... here we go!!??!

That sounds like a good plan. I wish you good luck with your project. Let me know in what direction you are heading. I might be able to help you out with references from the newer computer/XboxOne games.
