Opinions and recommendations for my board

So I think I have it figured out. I currently have a boss tu-2, a Fulltone Bassdrive, a 105q, and a Polish Love pedal. I want to add a compressor and think I'm going to go with a optostomp (good bang for the buck). I also want to add a chorus and think I decided on the Boss CE-5 (again good bang for the buck). Compression for some speaker protection and to even out my playing. Chorus to help fatten up my tone when the guitar is soloing (I play in a 3 piece). I love the Fulltone and the PL, but the stupid gain on the PL put the Fulltone ahead. I think I can use them both. The PL has a mild OD to leave on. The BD For heavier parts with the boost for insane OD. The 105q is mostly for fun, but I can use it for some songs. What do you guys think of my choices?

Next, I'm going to put them on a pedaltrain jr and use either a 1-spot or a Godlyke to power them. Any opinions between the 1-spot and the godlyke?

I would like to set up my board with the BD, chorus and 105q on the 1st row and the PL, compressor, and tu-2 on the 2nd row (along with the top half of the 105q). The 1st row I would use during songs and the 2nd row would generally be left on for whole songs.
What order should I run the fx?

Thanks for the help.

Bass into -Wah-comp-dirt-chorus-to amp.

The tuner can go pretty much anywhere.

Just my opinion, but the order seems to really work for me and many others.

The Godlyke seems to be more versatile, but is around 10-20 bucks more expensive. I'm not sure if the 1 spot will work overseas as well as the Godlyke, if that is even an issue.

The 1 spot seems to be the standard around here (aside from brick style power supplies).

The godlyke is actually $5 cheaper on MF. I could run 5 pedals off of the godlyke and run 1 jumper from my tu-2 to the 6th pedal. Would that work or should I just get the 1-spot.

The ideal order for how I want my board set up would be:
wah > chorus > Bassdrive > comp > PL > tuner
Any chance of that working out?

A little help from my friends?
