I think you should go minimalist at first. Just use the fix the bugs and a couple interface mods and see how it goes.
Make sure the game runs fine with the minimum mods and then add from there.
I started with Morale Mod, Electric Wake removal, Command Keys, Mighty Fine Crew to start for the first mission. Been adding to them since because the game runs perfectly stable.
