Also, how do the mods work? Can you switch them off and on in the menu or do they include whole new campaigns etc?

Eastern Front is like its a real addon. You install it, and run it by clicking on the desktop icon etc. This runs the Eastern Front version of the game which lets you do all you did before, but with the Russians as an extra faction.

To run without EF, just simply click on the TOV or vanilla icon.

I know some people mentioned Company of Heroes Online, how does this differ to the retail games?

How is the Eastern Front mod now. I tried it when it was released but really did not like it. Has it improved much? I am getting the COH itch again.

I'm not sure exactly in-game, although I do know it's free and it uses heroes, haven't had time to download and play it myself, because of other occupations.

It depends on which part you didn't liked. If you didn't liked the whole Russian thing, including the doctrine's and non-doctrinal lay out, I'd say don't. If it's the balancing was the problem that didn't made you like it, I would definitely try to re-download the latest version and give it a go.
