That is an interesting and intriguing start you propose.  How about a point
pool though for those spheres where you could assign a specialize area in (to
get a bonus) and then have to pay for each sphere or such.  But that is an
interesting start.  Its a good way to do things like that and I'll have to
archive it for later use.
