    I would imagine any demo we see with be a couple of battles. Maybe they'll be scripted, hopefully the AI won't need it.

    I would be very surprised if they don't use any scripting at all. If nothing else, I expect a little in-game intro done with a script.

    Well it will probably be historical battles like always so yeah a scripted AI but CA can't screw the AI up, it is damn near impossible consider the improvements they did to the AI in the 1.5/1.6 patch for RTW. And pretty much all previews shows a improvement as well.
    But in my case I'm not playing the demo to see how the AI is but how it will run on my computer.

    does anyone have any idea if we will be able to try the strategic mode out in a way so you can manage some cities and try some agents and not just walk with your general as in the rome demo.

    I don't think they will include the campaign map in the game.
    Just custom battles (with 1 or 2 factions) i think.

    Mikhal, a demo with the strategy portion of the game as well would be approaching or over 500Mbs to download. Far more than any game site wants to host.

    Also, that would be a huge amount more work for the programmers with little payoff --- I'd guess a majority of the audience for the demo (even here at the weird Org) are far more interested in the battle engine. So I wouldn't expect it.

    Whens the next PC Gamers issue out? I'd expect a demo to come with that.

    Nothing special. It's 446 MB heavy.
