Il s’agit ici de deux « grandes campagnes », de 14 scénarios chacunes, et débutant respectivement en 1939 et 1940 (voir le détail dans le communiqué ci-dessous). Le but est à terme de composer une unique grande campagne allant de 1939 à 1945, ce qui représentera pas moins de 70 scénarios. Et probablement 5-6 DLC. Chacun pourra ainsi selon sa période préférée du conflit composer son menu.
