I think the 12" is the limit of my budget, another 2" would cost 474 euro more. Thats one Nagler!

If that would be my shopping list I would get badder mpcc instead of TS coma corrector.would get Cheshire or a premium laser collimator (you will be using it every time so wouldn't go cheap) and why would you need cross EP?would get a 30mm or similar for extra wide field.cant go wrong with them :)
But that's just me...
