I for one strongly vote to just make sure it is rigged properly to Epic Skeleton and then skip animations totally.
Anyone can get all basic animations with good quality from the Market already. There are tons of them, even mocap quality. But a proper Character project are way fewer and this one is the contender to be the absolute top 1 in that category. Getting original model files is a must for serious development and construction of custom clothing/armor etc.
Keep the good work up!
