Unofficial guide on which edition of the game to buy (Feb 2020)
With the Warlords of New York expansion coming out on March 3rd, there seem to be a lot of questions and confusion as to which version of the game to buy, especially as the store descriptions vary by region and can be misleading.

Ultimate Edition
Includes: the base game, Warlords of New York expansion, and year one pass.
Recommendation: Don't buy this unless you really want the 8 "classified assignments".
Warlords Edition (also referred to as the "Warlords of New York Edition")
Includes: the base game and Warlords of New York Expansion.
Recommendation: Only buy this if you do not already own the base game
Standard Edition
Includes: the base game
Recommendation: Only buy this if it is on sale, and you want to try the game out before committing to the expansion. Depending on your region, it may be cheaper to buy this + the expansion rather than the "Warlords Edition"
Warlords Expansion
Includes: the Warlords of New York expansion only - the store page should indicate this is DLC only.
Recommendation: Buy this if you already own the game (regardless of which edition you already have)
