Yea Chiss are supposed to isolated you are right and what about Jedi, there sure is a heck alot of them running around! When it comes to SOE the Star Wars history doesn't matter it is what people want.

Clawdite/Changeling (Zam Wessell) - maybe we could then get "disguises" in the game. I know it won't happen, but damn, that'd be cool.
If I had to place money down, I'd bet on Kel Dor being one of the new ones (assuming they introduce two more, like JTL). They're sufficiently different-looking than the other 10 species, yet are recognizable enough (through Plo Koon) to the general masses (i.e., non-fanboys).
Gungans would make a whole lot of sense, given that Naboo is one of the prime planets in the game. But has LFL countered the Jar-Jar annoyance factor enough so that people would actually play as a Gungan? I dunno.

Devarions (Devil Species) would own. Chiss would own also.
But who wouldn't enjoy playing as a Watto Type Character! Haha, FUN!

Duros is another good option, but not sure how thier skill mods would work (they are natural space pilots)
I would love to see Duros in this game, and honestly thought they would be the second JTL species instead of Sullustans. However for their skill mods, yes they are natural space pilots, but Ithorians are supposed to be pacifists and incredible Bio-Engineers and look what mods they got. Not very appropriate but hey, what can ya do.

Droids would be nice, very customizable even it it were only Protocol series. Duros, Gungan,and Bith are logical choices. I would personally love to see the Yinchori (naturally Force resistant 7' '"turtles").
I didn't see any information on new races being added though. Most expansions do include a new race or two, but with SWG there is no telling.

Chiss is too much like Zabrak and Human...
I would be willing to bet Gammorreans or whatever the skiff guard race is.
You gotta look at whats already coded in the game...(ex: Vendors)

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing about the Chiss. Continuity aspects aside, they're just humans with blue skin and red eyes, no?
IIRC, skiff guard species were Nikto and Weequay (wrinkly guys with ponytails).
Gamorreans are a good idea, but I still think that Kel Dor will be the next one.
Duros & Neimoidans, BTW, are supposed to be different races of the same species (kinda like the two different kinds of Gungans - Boss Nass vs. Jar Jar), so if they ever did one, they probably wouldn't do the other.

Jedi
They will make a species that gives mods to the force so that all the 12year olds can be even more ub3r and l337 than they are now, because clearly using normal species with jedi is what is not allowing them to be the all conquering gods that they should be.
