I'm with the crowd in most of this. If I'm doing subtle secret or gothick magic, some kind of Path/Book mix works best.

If I'm doing a more conventional D&Dish or Dungeon Fantasy setting, GURPS: Magic magic, with spells ect. (modified to the setting) is lovely. Especially with the Decans and other Cabal-ish trick thrown in.

For grand mages in Ascenion Wars, Superhero Mages, or TL12 Space Opera superwizards, either disguised or obvious, Realm Magic, or some other syntactical magic has the oomph and the style.
