"quite a few"? Burning Wheel does, but that's just about the end of it
from my memory.

Besides, I'm quite willing to trashcan any game that uses predeclared
actions out of the gate no matter what other advantages they offer.
The cure is worse than the disease, both in the effect on play and the
added book keeping as the size of the battle grows (and I like battles
that range up to a few hundred characters on the table).

You go for it. I'll pass thank you.
