Talking to Sergeant Orel, who is one of the Band of Brethren, he mentions that there will be another war with Nilfgard, and Geralt mentions that you think they will come back after the defeat at Sodden - tells me it's definitely between the first and second Northern War with Nilfgard.

I was trying to figure out all these little dlcs with the first game, and I have come to the understanding that they (at least the ones done by CDPR The Price of Neutrality, and Side Effects) take place before the Witcher game. Which, to me seems a little odd. But then it does allow them to start you whenever they want, and not continue on with all your equipment/level and decisions from the first game. This way, it cheaply allowed CDPR and anyone else to continue to make more of the Witcher.
