I have Distant Worlds, Shakturi, and Legends.

I have just built myself a shiny new machine.

Is there a preferred install sequence, now we have multiple add-ons and patches?

No, unlike far too many companies out there, Matrix has an installer that does not require a specific patch order. Those companies are inexcusably lazy/incompetent - there's no reason you should have to, much less result in non-functional software due to not following the correct sequence.

Just install DW, then RotS, then Legends. Then the latest Legends patch you wish to apply.
