This one the cusp of Trevor Duval releasing the pdf for his Broken Empires system. He is chasing a magic system of similar constraints that you lay out in your final paragraphs of Part 1.
Also, Stravagante! by Penflower Ink has an interesting magic system that builds spells from a pair of d66 tables as spark for discussion with the arbiter. The dynamics are further structured and stratified by the d6 oracle and attributes-as-points systems.
Nice overview of magical systems. I do like the idea of having failure cause problems. Recently used the Kal Arath magic system. Divine magic based on demon pacts.
If you're curious enough, you can have a look at the magic system I made up... pls note that I have just revised it with some tweaks (the core is unchanged though) and I will publish the new version in the next future!
Interesting read! I write on magic from the real medieval historical perspective but I try to keep it fiction-facing. That we tread similar lines is quite cool!
