CMSF is kind of a different game, both in setting and mechanics. I like it, and at this point it's polished and enjoyable. When it came out, its state was a little miserable, but patches fixed it right up. I recommend it, if the modern setting interests you and you don't mind the expensive (assuming you get the add-ons with it) price. I like the modern setting, but it doesn't quite play the same as the WWII Combat Mission games.

AP:K'43 is only $20 so it's hard to go wrong with it. On the other hand, a big minus to it is a lack of multiplayer, and the scope of is far from "whole Eastern Front '41-'45" that CM2 had - instead here, you get units and maps from a small sector of front during one week's fighting in March 1943. That ensures a lot of good historical detail, but limits the scope/variety.
