For example fireball requires that the mage knows create fire and shape fire.

I know this might not be everyone's cup-of-tea but some people might find it a useful alternative to the existing RQ (III) systems and the "new" BRP systems. An added bonus is that the book is available as a PDF, from which one can copy and paste as much as one pleases... I'm seriously considering adding this to my collection.

There's a fan created list of all spells, with just the basic data at: GURPS Resources
If you end up writing up any specific rules for this, I'd be interested in viewing them.
