I'd recommend to use fd00::/8 since fc00::/8 was meant to be some kind of 
globally unique local address space managed by a registry (-> B2B VPNs).

Most don't. But you never know what e-junk some company uses. >:)

/64 as xfer network and a /56 for the LAN (both dynamic, forced change every 6 
months).

Cisco, Juniper, Linux, ... 
However, you need to check the details for each box and firmware. For example, 
Linux can hide the complete LAN behind a single IPv6 address.   

ciao,
