What packs you buy depends on the game you want to make. I suggest getting the arcaneFX pack regardless, it will make any game look a lot cooler :D Other then that it depends on what you are aiming for.

medeaval times then the Hummer and the Guns aren't much use to you.
(unless it's some sort of sci-fi time travel type of game.. ) 8-)

Ditto, it all depends on what your game is about. If you're doing an RPG inmedeaval times then the Hummer and the Guns aren't much use to you.

I don't really need any art assets due to having a fantastic artist for a partner, but I was wondering about some good animation stuff and if there are any 'must have' things out there the way showtool pro seems to be. Also is there any agdoll physics addont hat has yet eben implemented? I could not find one, but it is not critical.
I have read the official book now and am highly encouraged and think I have made the correct decision to pick it up, but any 'where do I go from here?' type advice would also be greatly appreciated as I find it all a bit overwhelming.

I am in the same boat and have searched around a bit but not found a definitive answer.

Since Im here, posting a smart comment about a vague subject line, I might as well answer your question (didnt intend to do so, but what the hay)
The tank pack is pretty good, shows you how to set up a nice suspension in TGE. Ive bought several others but wasnt too impressed with them.
