From what I remember, New Mutants and Uncanny X-Men parts of Evolutionary War are rather self-contained. I have never read other parts and I don't think I need. Skipping them would be pretty dumb, as they are written by the writers of regular series, and especially NM one has important developements happening to Moonstar.

I don't remember X-Factor one, though. Is it the one with Apocalypse vs. High Evolutionary?

EDIT: Ugh, I don't know what I was answering to, I thought someone mentioned skipping whole annuals, but they meant the Gruenwald bits. Anyway, put the Claremont and Simonson stories in.
