Sorry, I missed the reference to it. I've just dug the 3rd edition out of the cupboard - I'd forgotten how much they had changed some of the components, such as the character cards. It's odd, really - the second edition has a pleasantly old-fashioned feel about it, but the third edition now looks dated. However, I don't know if I need a fourth edition, especially if it doesn't actually play any faster.
