No, that's an external effect. The magic is to create the effect - once its created its not magical anymore.

Depends on the advantage used - it's likely Burning Attack. That means it works just like the advantage, e.g., requires a DX or Innate Attack roll to hit.

Yes to the first two, the second requires you add the No Signature enhancement for +4 energy (each +5% adds +1 energy).

If yes, the spell need to add the Meta Spell Modifier or no (the text says "dispelling" and "altering the magic", but in this case what the Control Magic do is "changing the direction" of the missile or a good analogy, in GURPS terms, the "innate attack skill roll") ?
|
Yes. That's a Control effect. Depending on the subject the Path will change: all forms of energy will require Path of Energy, physical items like bullets or arrows will require Path of Matter.

Yes, Add the Homing enhancement (p. B106) and calculate energy as +1 per +5% of the enhancement.

Nothing. You can't. Once it's at 0 it's done. Use the rules for Fatigue attacks along with a Greater Destroy Magic to damage the mana reserve.
