Okay , going to sleep soon,so don't expect further reply until 8 hrs later.
So these DLCs gives you factions for MP:
Western Front Armies
British Forces

And there are three Theater of War DLCs, which contains solo/coop challenges.

And there is one American campaign called Ardennes Assault .

anything beside these are just minor DLCs.

For multiplayer you should get all the aviable armies (pick them up on sale or third party in a bundle). It gives you a good all-round view of the game and improves your play, by looking at problems from two sides.

I don't consider this game much fun in single player, so neither the Theatre of War packages, nor Ardennes Assault seem to be worth it imo. Nothing there feels too great or challenging compared to playing against real people.

As for Commanders... Well they are a mixed bag. A few add some nice options you might want to consider. They can freshen up the experience a bit, give you different units to play with and allow for new strategies and playstyles (some influence that a lot, other only a bit).

Best stay clear from that and use the basic ones. You might get a commander dropped by warspoils anyways. You'll know wether you really want one or not, when you play for a while. Definitly do NOT buy them on the thought that some might be overpowered. Most people that tell you that just don't know how to play. Would be a waste of money.

No point getting Brits after the upcoming patch. I wouldn't buy any DLC of these money grabbing good for nothings.

I'd say all of the larger expansions are worth it. The Eastern Front Challenge Packs and Ardennes Assault are a good time if you like single player and The Western Front Armies and British Forces Expansions are very fun if you are into multiplayer (Brits are not yet balanced though if that affects you wanting to wait a bit on that one). Multiplayer commanders is really up to you, I wait for sales and buy em all, but if a dollar a guy is too rich for your blood, you can get random ones from war spoils just by playing the game.

Yeah you might want to wait a bit before you buy UKF. At the start they had good defensive play with emplacements. Now after patching the emplacements die very quick and is too risky regarding resources. This changed how they play drasticaly.
They're still fun to play because they have a nice choice of tanks to use so they aren't bad. Just not what many bought them for.

Edit: Relic have made announcements about their upcoming patch and it'll change UKF even more so I'd say wait for that patch before you decide if you want UKF or not.

Just the ones that give you factions and even then only if you really like versus/skirmish. I play online with my buddy atleast 2-3 times a week so it was worth it to me. I put 200+ hours on since July. So get Western front and British if you're like me, otherwise don't bother. Spend your money on a new game.
