How different will March of the Eagles actually be from the brief gameplay videos we saw when AGEOD were in charge?

sorry loki- but I think OP was about the first videos here on Paradox about the new game, not the original AGEOD Nap Campaigns. The first videos were based on 'the Claw' enginge - hahhah - and not the AGE engine.
Don't know any details past that, but I am interested if/how they will model combat as battles in that time frame usually ended at night and rarely carried on past 1 or 2 days. Regiments marched into the teeth of musket and cannon and were exhausted in the matter of hours.
In any case, the commitment is toward a RTS game format and I anticipate an interesting interpretation. Look at how they modeled factional fractures in ROME - (another EU'ish game).

The only thing I noticed is that regions outside of Europe like India have been unfortunately removed.
Also I assume it would be more sandboxy now that PDS is in charge.

I think the game will either be abandoned or recieve a massive overhaul... the first seems more likely

Its not more sandboxy, but more goal-oriented, and the map have been made more accurate..
I take it all countries are still playable, and are you able to form countries, like france forming the cisalpine republic as a sort of puppet state?

Not answering the second part of the question is a pretty sad news. No Cisalpine Republic, Etruria, Westphalia, Duchy of Warsaw etc...
They need to keep some secrets
Like the entire content of the whole game except a few facts. It does indeed seem sensible to withold one more just for the sake of secrecy.
And there's always modding... though how much and what will depend on whats possible and if someone has the inclination to do it.
