Ha! Good catch Klaxus. Yes, 16 pts.
TJ said it well, 120 points is fairly tight. You'll want to stay in school as much a spossible, but will find you can still have some nasty surprises for your foe.
I'd like to point out too that FAMILIARS are creatures which can cast spells, and SPAWNPOINTS are conjurations which can cast spells. When you add those in, you could cast a lot more than 30 spells in 15 rounds.
Last note: Long before you run out of spells, you will run out of options. Having limited options starts affecting your tactics and play style, and your opponent will see this and react accordingly.
