Having missed the previous go around, thanks both to HvM and Mason for bringing to my attention and providing the post with links. I've already PM'd Frank with my praise.

Seems a bit counter-intuitive, as the dice/orders mechanics can seem fiddly, but I really think SAGA works surprisingly well with beginners. I'm not good with 'hardcore' rules, and most GW detailed play and special abilities leave me snoring. However, after first being daunted by the choices dice placing gives you, I found myself able to make choices, even if not the best.  ;)

Bottom line: I had fun.

Will definitely try these down at the store!

Perhaps I should give it up.

I think HvM is only a light user of LAF, not a full-on addict - he only pops by occasionally  ;)

I'm interested to know about the ferns too.

They look like the brass "etched" ferns that Scalelink used  do;

Well, as he is from Germany, it might be this lasercut fern stuff from german railroad company Busch; here is a set on german Ebay:
