Balance-wise I'm kind of wondering how we might perhaps need to change the Tally system (balance-wise) if we were to used the slow-FP-recovery rules Doug Cole made in Last Gasp.
This was inspired by Threshold Magery but its not the same. There is no Tally that can be exceeded. Its a variant Energy Reserve that has a much slower Recovery but a higher reserve.
The 50 point base cost can be tweaked with several modifiers to customize it.
My goal wasn't just to put a point total on Threshold Magery but to come up with a more generic advantage that could model a variety of concepts.

I think adding the ability to borrow FP like Threshold Magery would be with a high level enhancement. Say +300% Cosmic.
