First off, very nice game, I like the PeG mechanics. How large of a core army can I have? Do I only get core units in the recruitment screen of the battle?

At the start of each battle, you can improve your core units or recruit new ones. There is no limit to how many core units you can have, other than your resources (which are what you use to recruit/improve and replenish your units).

And hence, no more worrying about that hidden Jensen Cap!

How about the core units in the grand campaign?Since you dont actually have time inbetween individual battle scenarios like PG to buy and upgrade, do you do it during the game itself or is there a seperate mechanic for that?

You can buy/upgrade right at the start of each scenario in the campaigns.

The Soviet campaign goes from 41-45. The German campaigns cover 41 and 42.

Thanks , but what i meant was is it like PG where it was individual operations like stalingrad, moscow etc etc or just one very long scenario..

Also not to thrilled to hear the German camp only covers 41,42...

The campaigns are linked battles, where your performance in each one affects your resources to recruit/improve/upgrade as you move on to the next. It's like PG, rather than a single large scenario.
