I found a solution for my problem recently. Apparently the order in which the modules are written in "etc/modules" is already the load order but udev keeps shuffling them around.
Now the "good" solution would be udev rules (very confusing for a newb!), the easy solution is to block udev from grabbing the modules by blacklisting them. Just append them to modprobe.d/blacklist and the modules will get loaded in the order of etc/modules.
Problem solved.
