Got the 4 listed. Do they add anything to the main game or just let you start at different times with specials just for that dlc?

The 1880 Dlc gives you a completely new start date to the Grand Campaign. I've not played it but it seems to be a very different experience to 1850, economies more developed, larger armed forces and so on.

The others are akin to the battle scenarios in the core game, my view is:

1862 - good to learn how to conduct a large war
FPW - ditto, and also covers a rarely done war, it will give you a good handle on combat and movement
1898 - good to learn the naval side and the interaction of land/sea. its also very time limited so a good exercise in pretty precise force tailoring.

none change the underlying .exe, just have special rules and the 3 shorter ones have the main economic aspects removed (or toned down)

saw your other question, if I am reinstalling (and have just had to completely reinstall my laptop), then I did base game, 1.04 and then the dlcs
