Default Getting Back On the Road

I haven't started my S in about 12 months (long story for another post). Everything was well maintained and operable before parking her. I have to replace the battery, change oil/filter, and most likely tires (probable flat-spotting). I've heard often, you can sometimes do more damage to a car letting it sit than while driving it. Aside from the few items I listed above, what else do I need to address to get my S back on the road? Any and all feedback will be much appreciated.

After sitting for a few months once, my clutch wouldn't disengage. Had to bleed the system then it was fine.
My brakes had no issue though.
