I'd say start with regular Settlers, then add 5-6 players if you think you need it. The others are really only necessary if you want more variety, but I like vanilla settlers just fine.
Was just coming to change that. I forgot you need the pieces from Catan. We have put all our Settlers stuff into one box so I forget sometimes what is needed for what.

5-6 player is fine when people know what they are doing but I have found too many times it slows the game down because of the building phase after every roll. I'd only play 5-6 players with people that know what they are doing else it becomes too painful. IMO
