Looking for a rule: modifying spell effects
I have a dim recollection of having seen, somewhere in GURPS 4e, a rule for applying Enhancements to standard GURPS Magic effects. I think that it produced either penalties to cast, or increased energy cost, or both.
Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Re: Looking for a rule: modifying spell effects
You're probably looking for Spell Defaults from Thaumatology p. 39. Basically, a mage can apply 5% of enhancements for a skill penalty and increased energy cost.
These rules got expanded in Thaumatology: Magical Styles and used by Antoni Ten Monrós to create his Essential Magic spells in PYR 3.25 - though he gave 10% of enhancements for the same changes, but then these were fixed spells not on-the-fly modifications.

Thanks! I think it was the Magical Styles version I was thinking of.
