I just completed WC1 (Kilrathi Saga version from PC Gamer 7/2000).  I didn't
get a chance to save my game, which means that there's no way to transfer the
character from the finished game to Secret Missions.  Am I missing something
here?

Do you get anything from transferring a character at different points in
WC1?  Or is "transfer character" there just to make sure you've played the
game at all and it doesn't really matter where you transfer from?

I did never actually complete the KS version of WC1, but assuming there 
is no change towards the dos version - no there is no possibility to 
save after the last mission. Whatever rewards you get here (the pewter 
planet for example) are lost.

You don't get anything. You can even start the expansions with a fresh 
character. The only thing you get is that you keep your medals and your 
killscore. Nothing of in game relevance.
