I’ve done the few relations tuts I could find on the web (including Area’s) an they give just a glimpse of what seems to be an extremely powerful tool in MB.
Are there any resources or tutorials that dig deeper into it (all in layman’s speak, i.e. for the artist/animator type?)

cheers

I cover some use of them for creating the foot rig on the master class dvd.
Best way is to play with the nodes and test it out.

It is similar to the ICE graph in XSI, visual programing, so if you know

how to build node networks or expressions in other software you do the same in relations. 

Read the help file as it lists what each node does.

And good luck, relations are lots of fun.
