They work fairly well for Tekumel, but I've not played anywhere in
Glorantha where I've felt that they would be appropriate.

This is opening up the how many sorcery systems do we want debate.
We probably need two, at least. We need one that is compatible with RQ3,
*if* RQ4 is to be compatible with RQ3 scenarios. We also need one that
feels like it belongs.
