Just curious if any update impressions on this game...20% so was tempted to pick up even though my initial demo impressions weren't overwhelming.

It has change considerably. I already sunk 56h in it. Neat sandbox, if you want that Black Company meets Jagged Alliance vibe. But it's still undergoing development, and there are still some issues and bugs.
Expect an unfinished product, that can change a lot in its development; but it's very much playable as it is.

The developers are very active and responsive to player feedback, which gives me hope for the state at the 1.0 release.

I'm just hoping it gets finished soon.
Can't wait to actually be able to fully enjoy the game.

I can't help the impression that it's just a little too one dimensional. Has there been more expansion to stuff beyond than repetitive fights, like a campaign, or at least something to put the fights into a context?

There has been a campaign layer for quite awhile.

Actually, I think they've mostly been adding content & such to the campaign map play lately. 

I've wanted to fire Battle Brothers up recently, but have been forcing myself to put it off until they get all that extra stuff in.  It was quite enjoyable when I tried it a few months ago even though the variety of enemy armies & missions you could take on the campaign map were limited at the time. 

The turn-based combat was fun.  Managing your merc company on the open campaign has huge enjoyment potential, even if you just summarize it as light roster management & rpg with a stream of optional missions to find.
