Silas is back! He joins a single chapter (half a chapter, even) later with one extra rank in each weapon. This time he's got the advantage of being the only Cavalier instead of one of many. I'll be honest, I've never actually used him as anything but a pair-up bot in Birthright... I'd assume he's better in BR than in Conquest where his mediocre speed is less of a downside and his class and high physical bulk make him more more unique. He can also achieve the Sol Master Ninja combo with much less difficulty, and thanks to facing weaker enemies will have a much lower chance of dying while using it too. He's a good unit in a route with worse standards for units overall, it's very hard to imagine he's not better. Is unfortunate that the first chapter after he joins is a desert though.
Samurai's not a bad A+ support choice if you want to fix his speed, but I can't see it offering him anything that Master Ninja doesn't already. Ryoma probably appreciates taking Paladin from Silas more than Silas appreciates taking Samurai from him.
