Huh?

Retail releases, last I checked, were...

IL2: Sturmovik - Standalone game
IL2: Forgotten Battles - Standalone game
IL2: Ace Expansion pack - the ONLY add-on, but it didn't last long, as...
IL2: Gold - Standalone game (combination of previous two)
Pacific Fighters - Standalone game
IL2: 1946 - Standalone game
(Yes, of course I realize some could be combined...point is that Ubi didn't release any but one of the series as an 'add-on', all were sold as standalone games)

...etc

Heck, even look at the Rainbow Six games, or Ghost Recon, etc.

I really can't think of the last "add-on" UbiSoft put out to ANY title at all.

They really do seem to prefer re-using engines (perhaps with some updates) and selling new content then as new full standalone games.
