RE: France 1940 Mod B - No peeking Marshall Antoni :)
Amnesia,
I'll give you a short summary here: there are several versions of the game, TOAW I, II, Wargame of the Year (called "WOTY"), Century of Warfare (called "COW"), and now, TOAW III. They are all the same game. There's not complete backward compatibility, BUT when a scenario is saved in the editor of the latest updated version of any of those games, it is playable in COW; and then, it can be saved in the editor of TOAW III, and is playable in TOAW III. So, it is not too hard, but if you have a very old scenario, you might need to find someone to "convert" it for you. I can do that, and there are others here as well. Likewise, on some of the scenario depots, like Rugged Defense, many of the old scenarios have already been converted, and are now identified as "TOAW III".
The old scenarios, of course, won't use all the new features, even though they will be playable. The best scenarios will be those designed for TOAW III, so I'd strongly recommend that you buy TOAW III.
Hope that helps!
