Not to mention the CG pictures of the leaders/soldiers and units look absolutely terrible, though the other graphical changes look nice.
Rather than pay for a country-specific DLC that doesn't work with the latest expansion you could always just play the ICE mod, which is free, made by the same guy who made DI:G, and isn't nation-specific. That mod doesn't work with the latest expansion either though, but there's a submod of it that does.
