This is a hopefully-complete list of features that make up the Make CoH Great Again mod. It will not necessarily detail tiny tweaks, e.g. damage balances of weapons, unless the tweaks are significant. This list will be updated as features are added, and if i forgot to put something in.

----------------------------- alliesallies alliesallies alliesallies GLOBAL FEATURES axisaxis axisaxis axisaxis -----------------------------

Consistent Stats: Weapon stats (e.g. damage and accuracy) are no longer different, based on which unit or vehicle is using it. The final damage OUTPUT might differ (e.g. individual squad accuracy), but not the damage of the weapons themselves, for instance. One result of this is that pioneers with Mp40s can actually be useful in short range combat now.
Consistent Vet: Most units in a faction have the same kind of veterancy bonuses, with exceptions where it makes sense.
Class Warfare: Units are now categorized by class and skill. A light class unit has less hitpoints, but higher capping- and movement speed and vice versa. A light unit like Volks has low skill, giving it penalities in combat, whereas a commando squad is highly skilled and gets bonuses.
Supersized Squads: Almost all squads have increased squad sizes, to lessen the amount of squad wipes.
Sniper Buff: Snipers have more HP and a higher rate of fire, so they're not completely useless.
CoH1 Camo: The camouflage system is now like CoH1, in that the camouflage toggle is back (except for commandos). Camouflaged units can therefore be invisible out of cover as well. The CoH2 system made countersniping and just managing snipers in general, too micro-intensive.
No Demo Camo: Demolition charges are no longer camouflaged.
Ability-Less Vet: When gaining levels in CoH2, units get an ability at lvl 1 instead of a stat boost. This makes them feel weak, and so, said abilities are now always available, and units get a passive bonus at lvl 1.
Bunker Upgrades: Most bunkers now skip the MG upgrade step to reduce micromanagement. These also cost fuel now rather than munitions.
Basic Func. (Bunkers): All factions can build some form of anti-infantry emplacement, and most emplacements have increased hit points.
Basic Func. (HMGs): All factions now have an HMG unit.
Basic Func. (Snipers): All factions now have a sniper unit.
Basic Func. (Crews): All factions now have vehicle crews that work exactly like the USF version.
Basic Func. (Engineering): Each faction’s engineer units have the similar features, like field defenses, sandbags etc. Also, wire cutters don’t require upgrades anymore.
Catapult Seats: Crews in open-top vehicles have a chance to survive being destroyed.
Slower Repair: All units with a repair ability (except for repair station mechanics), now do so at reduced speed. This is to compensate for increased squad sizes and the influx of vehicle crews.
Combat Wrench: Units repairing or building while under fire don’t have increased received accuracy, but instead perform said task slower.
No Window Blinds: Snipers no longer gain an accuracy penalty when sniping targets in any type of cover, e.g. buildings, emplacement or regular cover.
Steel Integrity: All neutral buildings now require all of their sections to be destroyed, before said building will collapse.
FHQ FTW: Forward HQs from CoH1 are back for all factions, and besides reinforcing, they can produce the given faction’s standard infantry squad. They can be decapped in 30 sec, though there is no progress bar to display this, so it looks like the decapping squad is doing nothing.
Very Friendly Fire: All units take 100% friendly fire now.
Burn, Baby, Burn: All flame weapons burn longer and are more deadly now.
No Counter-Bees: Counter-barrage functionality resulted in some boring automation that didn’t make the game more fun, and so I have removed it for all units of all factions.
Boom Blaster: Panzerschrecks, Bazookas etc. are more effective against infantry, in style with CoH1 where rockets could actually kill soldiers they hit. This never happens in CoH2.
Slow LMG: To underscore the LMG’s role as a stationary weapon, and to reduce its damage output, I have increased the aim time of all LMGs.
Call Inn: Call-in units only cost manpower now. To compensate, buildable vehicles cost less manpower.
Pricey Limits: Due to vehicle crews and editor limitations, limits on call-in vehicles are no more. Instead, certain vehicles become more expensive the more of them you have, and vice versa. The price only goes down if the vehicle is destroyed while it’s manned by your crew.
Buff Halftracks: All halftracks have increased hitpoints, to reduce insta-wipes from facing a double-AT-gun tactic.
Halftrack Multitasking: All halftracks with a weapon upgrade can still reinforce squads.
No Tank Left Behind: Vehicles can no longer be abandoned as result of a critical hit.
Double Pop: Population cap has been doubled, to compensate for increased squad sizes.
High Stakes: Fuel- and Munitions points provide more of their dedicated resources. Regular points provide less of each.
OP Everywhere: Observation Posts can be built on all types of resource points.
No Snare Snipes: All AT snares except the panzerfaust, must be in range of their target to use the ability.
Suppression Adjustment: Adjusted MG suppression values. Medium MGs inflict more suppression on nearby squads, but heavy MGs inflict more suppression on their target.
Turbo Pivot: All HMGs that suppress now have a much faster turn rate, allowing for better results if microed correctly.
Green Immunity: All units in green cover are much more resistant to suppression.

----------------------------------- usfusf FACTION SPECIFICS: AEF usfusf -----------------------------------

Mo’ freedum! The player is no longer forced to make officers a part of his fighting force. The many unit variations are also intergrated now, but as optional extras.

Queen-Size: Next-largest squad sizes of all factions.
Two-Tiered Unit System: Many units have improved versions of themselves, who can be accessed through optional extra teching, e.g. the M8 Greyhound is a beefed-up version of the M20 Utility Car.
Officer Distinctions: Officer squads now initially function just like riflemen, but have a shared pool of finite abilities that are stronger on higher ranking officers, e.g. a given distinction on a Major is more effective than on a Lieutenant.
Airborne Paras: Paratroopers can now reinforce anywhere on the field.
Run & gun only: The M1919A6 LMG has been removed entirely.
Scout Sniper: The Pathfinder can build camouflaged listening beacons that provide vision around themselves.

--------------------------------- sovietssoviets FACTION SPECIFICS: SOVIET sovietssoviets ---------------------------------

Now much more thematic, e.g. their low value on life, the tactic of swarming the enemy with numbers, and the initially weak faction that slowly grows into a mighty force.

King-Size: Largest squad sizes of all factions.
Utility Veterancy: Doesn’t make squads perform better, but makes them cheaper and faster to reinforce, and lets them use abilities more often.

---------------------------------- okwokw FACTION SPECIFICS: OKW okwokw ----------------------------------

OKW is basically Panzer Elite now, all hail Panzer Elite Customs and their armored cars! That means restructured teching and independency from trucks. Viva la revolution!

Führer Frei: Extra commander, to make up for axis only having 2 factions.
Optional Trucking: Trucks are optional now and still have the same functions as before, except for teching.
New Buildings: ...and as such, OKW has brand new teching buildings.
Horizontal Teching: OKW’s structures can be built in any order and cost almost the same, presenting a more horizontal approach to teching.
Custom Veterancy: Just like in CoH1, you can now choose between different veterancy bonuses, but unlike CoH1, the choices are much harder now, as the bonuses are more unique and varied.
Level Up!: As a reminder, OKW units gain a green indicator above themselves when they level up.
Airborne Fallschirms: Fallschirmjägers can now reinforce anywhere on the field.
Aces High: Tank aces (aka command tanks in vanilla) have the same stats as their regular version counterparts, except for more health and the auras they come with.
Infantry Halftrack: OKW can build an armed sdkfz 250 halftrack that can reinforce squads, and comes with a squad of panzergrenadiers.
Round Wurf: The Wurfrahmen now fires a barrage rather than in a line.
Naked Gun: OKW AT-guns no longer have camouflage or retreat. They are cheaper as compensation.
Ketten: The OKW starts with the Ketten-Kübel unit, an unarmed Kübelwagen that can cap territory and gets special abilities, depending on the chosen commander.
