Need help deciding which difficulty mod to use

[stinkoman]

Hey all, deciding to get back into i-war and am having some trouble deciding which mods to use.
I have found at least five different mods that affect the difficulty and gameplay in one form or another. Most of the faqs are somewhat scarce in describing what the mods all do. I waould appreciate any imput and advice on which mods to use.

Elite .4 – Sounds fun but the “this might well make the game impossible for you to beat” is kinda scary. And the sensors seem much different now though i havnt been able to find anything in the readme. The sensor changes seem to make a bigger difference than the upgrades to ships, at least for me

Unleashed .94 – The new pinguin pirate freighter sounds like fun and it sounds like there are numerous changes to the game but it warns that it can be incompatible with other mods. Especially those that change ship loadout.

Weapons Revamp V.1 – Some tweaks to weapons, but it says it was made for Elite 1.0 I cant find version 1.0 anywhere.

Dark Elite – There are maybe two lines of text in the readme and they are in german. Anyone use this mod?

Sensore Overhaul – Gets rid of the active sensors and gives you five levels of passive sensore that increase your heat signature the more they are turned on. Does elite already cover this?

Well those are the main choices i have in my mods folder. I have tried elite for about the first mission before finding the other mods. Now im unsure which to use. Any comments?
