"Any system that gives an Orlanth cultist the same magic as a Ygg cultist simply because they both have the Storm Rune doesn't work, in my opinion."
 
I think a runic approach can work if there are synergies developed between the runes. By that I mean powers for Orlanthi magic derive not so much from his Storm Rune alone, but the interaction of his Storm Rune with the other runes he has. This makes Orlanthi magic different from another Storm deity unless they happen to have all the same runes.
 
As far as a system utilizing this concept? Would probably have to be one that uses a god's "major" rune as a base for powers and then modifies them based on the god's other runic ties.
