Hi Trevor,
My first panel was bought on very much the same lines as you are thinking.
However I decided to drop the WAD fairly early in the planning on grounds
that it was very expensive and I couldn't get anyone at the time to proclaim
it an essential Serge module to own.
I opted for:
Universal Audio Processor, Audio Mixer, Resonant Equaliser, Dual Universal
Slope Generator, Wave Multipliers x 2, FRS and Adaptor strip.
So far I've never needed both the VCM (Wave Multipliers), so that was most
likely a bit of wasted space.
I've been very pleased with my choices apart from that though.
The UAP is nice and simple. The DSG has SO many different uses and reacts in
ways none of my other LFO's or Envelope Generators by other companies do.
The Resonant EQ doesn't really add anything to the FRS angle, but it is a
really nice module and is a superb module for audio processing.
With regards to your specific ideas:
Phaser either, too subtle for my taste. I've not been sold on the
Waveshaper, although I could see it being a useful tool for you and would be
my (personal) one pick out of your C team (apart from the Res EQ of course).
So to sum up:
Either go with 'B' or go with 'C' in which I would include: Res Eq, Dual
Universal Slope Generator and Wave Multiplier.

With regards to your specific ideas:
