In the interview it says you can no longer use the rage spirits, and the guy being interviewed (Dmitri something) didn't really answer the question as to whether we can carry our heroes from 'The Legend' over into the game, but I imagine you need to start from scratch, as this game is about the princess and her dragon.

Also, on the 1C website, it says "sequel to King's Bounty..." blah blah. Whole new game, then?
Yes, it's a whole new game with the same engine/graphics. You can't carry over your heroes. Amelie is your hero and she can still be a Mage, Paladin or Warrior. There are about 50 levels (or more) as opposed to 30 in TL. The world is entirely new, some of the skills have been modified (although it is basically very similar). You have a little dragon instead of the ragebox, and the dragon skills are new. Spells are mostly the same. There are plenty of new units but 2/3 are the same. There are also some really excellent new innovations, such as 'achievement medals' which give bonuses, and also a new bounty system for hiring mercenaries.

Think of this as a sequel more than an expansion.
