Battle for Normandy 2.0 qustions

[Sleeplessmind]

Hello all, I have a few questions because I cant seem find my way around confusing lay out of the Battlefront website. Is there a place where I get the Combat mission 2.0, Commonwealth, and Market Garden in a bundle package? Also because I am new to the series. Is fortress Italy the new stand alone game?

I don't believe such a bundle is available yet.

Also because I am new to the series. Is fortress Italy the new stand alone game?

FI is a stand alone game (called, IIRC, a "family" in BFC's terminology), certainly. The newest. But it's had a module (Gustav Line, aka "GL") released for it, and been out well over a year now, so I wouldn't, personally, characterise it as "new" in absolute terms. And the engine version has just leapfrogged again, so FI + GL is no longer the most up to date iteration of the engine that the two families share at their core.

Thank you for your reply, I have a few more questions. Can you combine units form lets say Normandy and Fortress Italy for custom missions. Also What is IIRC? Lastly what is the biggest benefit for 2.0?

IIRC is IIRC! if I recall correctly.

IMHO is in my humble opinion.

google this stuff, there are dozens.

No. They are separate games.

Lastly what is the biggest benefit for 2.0?

2.0 was mostly a graphics upgrade, but there were numerous small changes as well. There is probably a changelog somewhere on the main website if you are curious. Without the 2.0 upgrade though you can't play the Market Garden module so it's required for that. CMFI and GL are also coded in 2.0. Only CMBN and CMBN Commonwealth module are currently in 1.0 and that will probably change before too long.
