OK, so what about the bigger point spells like say Warp or Jumper?
How do you determine their cost? Skill + a UB premium?
A bigger penalty to the skill roll?

For Enchantment Afflictions with perm have a terminating condition so coudl be considered temp magic and they can be counter magiced away.
Gadgets could represent a more permanent method of enchantment and also allow more flexibility as your not having to spend points on a spell.
I think both could work together in the campaign.
