The Vetz need a ride..standard taurox works well to get them to an objective..The Scions for the cost of the one scion unit you can do two 5 Man...(They do not need a ride since they can deep strike)

The size of the Scion unit is more a matter of what your trying to do with it. A 10 man scion squad deep striking and cripple a marine unit and have a chance of surviving the next turn. While 2 5 man squads individually either just tag a marine unit then die, or they are strictly 2x meltas tank suicide units.
Deepens on what your intentions are for the squad.
If you run Scions at 5 man give the unit 2x meltas and go tank hunting.
As for the platoon command squad either use them for orders or they work great as a special weapons squad as 4 out 5 models can have special weapons. Flamers are always useful. And cheap or basically any other special weapon you can afford.
