Add the following rule to the ruleset, entitled Meta Magic:
Spells can be cast vertically as well as horizontally. If the GNDT workbench records for several consecutively-listed Apprentices, when read vertically from top to bottom using runes in the same workbench position, forms a configuration that would - if it were found horizontally in a single Apprentice’s workbench - have an effect as defined elsewhere in the ruleset, then it forms a meta-magical structure.
Any Apprentice whose workbench contains a rune that is part of a meta-magical structure may apply the effect (which will be the same as the horizontal equivalent of that rune combination) of that structure on all of the players whose runes form a part of that meta-magical structure, including themselves. This effect may not be invoked for a meta-magical structure any more often than its horizontal equivalent.

That aside, it’s not always going to be clear what is meant by “apply the effect of that structure on all of the players whose runes form a part of [it]”.

I left the wording vague because we have no idea what the effects.of spells will be, or will be limited to, yet, and I didn’t want to proscribe or presume until that was clear; my intent was that this could be amended as needed.
Nevertheless, I’m not going to repropose this, so if anyone wants to take the idea and make it into something they think is workable then they have my blessing.
