Technical issues with Heroes III.

Starting over means beginning the game from the very beginning on the same map with the exact same generation (with all the same random objects, monsters, and artifacts). To create a new map, you need to exit to the main menu and start from there. Trading between heroes in a town (if I'm not mistaken) works in HotA (Horn of the Abyss), but not in The Complete Collection/The Shadow of Death (SoD). I only have The Complete Collection; I haven't played HotA yet. The number of creatures in hives, preserves, pyramids, and other such structures is only displayed after visiting them (if you decline the battle).
