Militia Commandos, Logis, Assaults, Scouts and Sentinels
I'd like to use that hacking speed and Nova Knife damage skill for the Minja without having to use a 3k ISK suit and 15k ISK fit for it, please CCP. 
40 kills with the most basic, cheapest possible dual-wielding standard Bolt Pistol fit...

Probably not gonna happen.
Militia suits are meant to give the player an idea of how the item works. By the time someone is thinking of getting specialized suits, they already have an idea of how they work, because they've been using the basic variant for awhile... |

*Playing in a MLT Sentinel Frame doesn't give you an idea of how Commandos work
*Playing in a MLT Medium Frame doesn't give you an idea of how Logistics work
That aside, there aren't any foreseeable consequences to their introduction, so I'm on board with this idea.

I would make an exception for Commandos, I can see the reasoning behind a MLT Commando.
Basic Medium frames should just get 2 equipment slots. Its has always bugged me how Assaults give up nothing to get their plentiful bonuses, while logis give up a lot to get theirs. |

Those bonuses are not a part of the suits stats they are part of the skill which unlocks the suit (and yes they are then applied to the correct suit). As such racial specialist skill bonuses are not applicable to either standard (i.e. non-specialist, not to be confused with the meta level STD,ADV,PRO) frames or militia frames.

EDIT: Now if you're talking only about having militia suits with the slot layout of a given specialist suit at STD level without the skills applied such that players can field test a role before pouring SP into making it effective, then sure that makes sense what else are militia items for?
See a cool idea thread? Mail me the title and I'll take a look =)

I wouldn't mind this. But commandos would only have like 1 slot and logis would have 2 equiplent

Just going to throw this out there; Role-less "basic" suits are pretty much Sentinel, Assault, and Scout suits without a skill bonus and those have militia variants so... yeah, three of the five suit types already have militia variants, which is nice.
As for getting the other two out into the public, I'd run the idea of giving new players free Faction version of their race's Logistics and Commando suits if putting out new militia suit types isn't an option.
Lets new people know they can get cool stuff early if they run Faction Warfare as a neat bonus. |
