And last, but definitely not least, Unfortunate Son's excellent counter mod is included in the update too!

To use it, you will need to have NATO counters selected (i.e. turn off 3-D Units in the Options screen).

Then go to Settings -> Mods and tick the box next to Unfortunate Son's Counter Mod.

Enjoy!
