personnaly...for me....depends on the map situation....im a fan of taking ladders and barricades depending on the map layout. We tend to play with many multiple levels in games so ladders are a necessity with my Yagirs lower movement. And having barricades can help..so sometimes I have to scrimp on gear...so the plasma knives I will work in if I have the equipemnt slots...deffinatley go with the ceramite armor if you're going against lots of blast or torrent weapons in the enemy list and the plasma knifes get even better if they have it already with the faction equipment.

as far as building the warriors WITH the knifes....I see the shotguns being more important to have than the revolvers....so my warriors will go with the shotguns and then will usually try and work the plasma knifes into my equipment later. Ill even go with the extra equipment to fit them in if I need them between the Reposition/Ploy/Equipment choice you makeat the start of the game

also....part of this game is playing for the objectives and NOT playing for kills. sure killing enemy units is fun...but wont win you the game every time....so learn to play for the objectives.....
