Yes decent tools are a must. Just for the hell of it I bought a Silverline 21mm combination spanner off eBay for £3.50 including delivery, it looks really well made but unfortunately if I use it on my front wheel nuts it flops around like a cock in a stocking, risking rounding off the flats, there's not much difference in fact between this and my Britool 22mm! It's that bad.
Regarding the circlip pliers you'll probably need two pairs, external ones for most of the fasteners and internal ones for front hub and mag flange etc.

The Bergen set copes with the circlip on the mag housing and a similar sized one on an inboard disc brake.
