Which Version for New Career?

[HeliosPh0enix]

I'm looking to start a new modded career game.  I would like to play with the new features included in 1.6, but am okay with playing in 1.5.1 if that is not optimal.  My question is, which version of KSP would be best for a playthrough with lots of mods (based on how updated the mod collection is at the moment).  For reference, I want to play with OPM, KSP Interstellar, KW Rocketry, USI Life Support, KIS/KAS, and other smaller mods.  Should I try to get everything working in 1.6, settle for 1.5.1, or wait a little while until more mods are updated to be compatible with 1.6?  Thanks for your help!

I'd check what the current status of the mods on your wish list are, and the make a decision from there. Personally, I'd stick with 1.5.1 and not bother trying to make enough jank to stick them into a new version.

Honestly, all of the ones you've mentioned I believe work just fine already in 1.6.  I tend to go with the latest version unless there's a reason otherwise.

Personally, I copied my GameData folder over from 1.5.1 to 1.6 (minus the Squad folders) and haven't had any new trouble...  Though there's probably some mods I have installed that I haven't actually hit their use-case yet.
