NO, this cannot be done. You will need to play the campaign again, see the new stuff, explore the new areas and use the new skills. KBAP chars cannot be imported due to the additional content and due to the skill changes. They are simply incompatible.

Think of it as Heroes 3 and Heroes 3 armageddon's blade and the other expansions. You couldn't start a Heroes 3 extra large map, play it for 5 days, get the expansion and simply transfer the map to the expansion and the new content, could you? Still, heroes 3 was branded as the best title in the heroes series - and this title still stands.

To be honest, it is better to start over anyway. You can't really benefit from the changes if you are already through most of the game.

I do see why people are a bit confused though, as I too thought it was going to be like 5 new continents.

I can't believe I am playing this game so many times over... I thought the nightmare was over months ago. Evil 1C... evil 1c.....
