Multiplayer Question

if i have CM:battle for normandy 2.0 and player Y have CM: and all other expansions, can we play CM:battle for normandy 2.0 (i mean is the game automatically integrated into hybrid version like WoW or u can choose which version to play, specifically for the reason i mentioned)

No need to bold things. Really.

But yes you can play each other. You are both restricted to using the units, timescale, maps, formations and other elements of what you have in common. In this case, from what I can tell, you'd need to make sure you stuck to CMBN base game units etc. The best way to approach this is to have the player with the least-expanded game set up the battle. Apparently.

You can play with another player as long as two things are true.

1) You have the same version and patch as the other player. On the start screen there is a version number at the bottom. Right now the most up to date is 2.12 I believe. If the version number matches exactly you can play each other.

2) Both players only use content available to both players. This is the tricky part because the game does not automatically help you here by telling you what units come with which module.

In your case after getting both version numbers up to the same level playing a scenario that ships with the base game would be the easiest way to move forward. There is a little help there because the Commonwealth scenarios all start with CW and the Market Garden scenarios all start with MG. I recommend that the person with the least modules start the game.
