^ Wouldn't the Dakota's be the first state bundle people buy? (Not including the base game)
Yes.
Sometimes I think that unused (if you don’t install the map mods

) option of «Map Module»

may be an idea to make an alternate basic map for current size of ATS territory: either you buy ATS with a basic map in California (and all other states are as DLCs), or you buy ATS with a basic map in Texas (California is in the list of DLCs in that case) — maybe, there are some people who is more interested in eastern part of map and can’t afford all of map DLC’s at once. But, I imagine how difficult can be to keep the compratibility of the map parts when some of them can be the basic one and the optional one at the same time

. So, it’s very unlikely to happen
