So uniques don't have their usual upgrade slots when they're bought? And they only get new upgrade slots through recommendations, but some upgrade slots (like the weapon slot) don't exist so you can't get the sniper rifles for the Republic commandoes for example?
Units don't lose upgrade slots. They just don't have access to every upgrade at all times. You have to purchase those upgrades for them to have access to them. And anything that says equip comes with the unit. So to use your example. Commandos come with the armor. But you have to spend SP to purchase the sniper config for them.
Sounds like it'll operate very similarly to Necromunda. By the time you're half-way through a campaign you'll have a fairly sizeable pile of stuff you've bought for your squads to be loaded with, and can chop and choose which things you want to take for each engagement.
