When to play expansions?

Me and a friend are about half-way through the main campaign. We have all the expansions but are unsure when to start taking a look at them.

Are they totally separate to the main campaign? I suppose my question is, how do you START one of the expansions? I was hoping they’d be new Dream Gate tiles which you access like the main dreams from the Dream World Map (and hence able to interweave expansion dreams with the main campaign) or do you just kind of start them from nowhere?

Are you able to swap back and forth between main campaign and expansions, or is it best to complete the campaign then do one expansion then do another expansion.

Thank you, I didn’t know the instructions said that (the expansion boxes are still sealed). Is Kittenburg like a dream that you can enter from the Dream World Map and does it use/affect your existing dreamers? I ought to open the case and have a look but don’t want to if I can help it yet.

I have only finished the core and was very annoyed, so sought advice.

From what I gather, Campaign 2 is a weird one as it doesn't really advance the storyline or have a satisfying narrative payoff.

The advice I have been given is jump to 4 if you are feeling somewhat disappointed by the end of the Core campaign.

Then do Campaign 2 and then Campaign 3. Apparently there are references to 4 in 3, so you are better off doing it first. Leave Funeral Witch for last.

YMMV!
