After watching my buddy play the demo the other week i knew I had to have this game. So far I have not been disappointed at all. The same demo/tutorial comes with the retail version. I played through that to get the basics and then went into the campaign.
I have to agree that the PAUSE key is essential due to the size of the battlefields, which is fine because i love the large maps. Another hint is to assign your squads a number; I believe you use CTRL+ (a number key). That wil keep things a bit more organized. The rest of the shortcuts will help too.
Using the single player skirmishes to experiment with what is available to you in battle is probably a good idea and one I need to pursue. There is a lot built into the game!
