[QUOTE="coyote6, post: 5270472, member: 1225"] Marvel Superheroes Adventure Game, which used the Saga System & was published by TSR, used cards as randomizers. I think you're thinking of the Marvel RPG put out by Marvel itself -- Marvel Universe Roleplaying Game. On topic, I don't think I'd find it very fun to play an RPG with the GM rolling all the dice; it wouldn't help immerse me in the game, and I think I'd feel like I was missing out on some of the fun. I think it would be even less fun for me to play D&D without knowing my character's capabilities; I'd probably spend more time trying to figure what I could do then I would being in character. Never mind that I don't know how I could make up a D&D character without knowing said character's abilities. (Edit: I suppose the GM would make all the characters?) OTOH, I've had fun playing an amnesiac in GURPS -- no idea who I was, let alone what I could do. But I was rolling the dice, figuring out who I was, and figuring out my character's character sheet at the same time. (The PC was also very capable, which I'm sure helped. "Say, I seem to be regenerating very rapidly.") [/QUOTE]
