The new line will work the same way. If you own the old product, you'll be able to install a new one on top of it; or you'll be able to get a compilation product like 1946 that includes old content from previous releases.
But once the sequel is released, there obviously won't be any more support for stand-alone CoD.

This is perfectly understandable (if somewhat sad because CloD does feel like it's being scraped under the carpet somewhat) but if the ETO is further expanded in the future, will these changes affect the core structure of the expanded CloD? So the game will be improved, but not directly...? e/g any map changes to Britain and France will transcend.
Additionally, if there is ever a larger 1:1 scale map made of Britain and France, will this be able to take the place of the older one?
So many possibilities...
