When starting a new game, the last setup screen is the Victory conditions screen. If you have both DW and the expansion installed, you'll see 2 checkboxes. One is for the DW story and the other is for RotS story. You can play both, none at all, or either or, it's your choice. They don't interfere with one another.

When you encounter the 'end game' I will not spoil for you, that is the Return of the Shakturi expansion story that you can choose to have on or off.
Personally I haven't played without both story elements on since ROTS, it doesn't always have a big impact.

Have fun.
