The demo has been updated Friday, March 5, at 13:50 GMT, and is now in version 1.01a (the previous one was in version 1.00).

Changes 1.00>1.01a:
The third tutorial had a bug preventing the process of the first turn.
Not using his desktop resolution would prevent the Army Outliner to be displayed correctly.
In the campaign, the Saxony Surrender and Austrian Reinforcements events have been overhauled completely.

Content:
All three tutorials: basics, Army Command, Advanced Tutorial
Invasion of Saxony Scenario
First 12 turns of the big campaign (1757-1764)

Limitations in the demo:
You can't continue past the turns allowed (contrary to the full game)
Elements recover hits but can't be recreated completely when destroyed (you need replacements for either operations)
The National Morale can never drops below 100 (but can raise much higher)

And that's it, basically, almost as the full game within the context of the demo scenarios (and these limitations should not prevent you from enjoying the demo).

Cool! Will try it tomorrow (If Battlefield BadCompany 2 wont take all of my time )

Very nice so far. Damn Browne is always moving aroung my flanks!
One thing, after Saxony surrenders there are still large numbers of austrian units in the camp. I thought the units in there would all surrender, so WAD?
