are there RPG combat systems that work without RNG and without

Do you consider drawing/maintaining a hand of a fixed size from a deck of 52 cards and using the value of a card played from your hand to resolve a challenge as RNG?

Gurps has rng, but the bell curve of 3d6 means that the higher skilled warrior will win 99% of the time

The best you're gonna get are systems with dice pools

make up some currency, like Tactic-Points (TP)
For example, attacking costs you TP, but the cost gets reduced if your enemy's evasion is lower than your to-hit stat, and higher if your target has a better stat.
Investing x amount of additional TP lets you evade attacks completely, but regaining TP requires you to spend actions for resting.
Enhancing the damage you deal becomes a matter of from which side you attack, weapons have a critical bonus that adds to the damage you do if you attack from behind or from the side.
TP can be spend to make some actions more effective, open up tactical possibilities etc.

You could try larp with real crossbows.

in some systems damage is a fixed value, but you still roll to hit. other systems you auto hit, but roll for damage. i haven't seen something where you auto-hit with a fixed number.

A few, but I don't think any are geared towards "tactics and resource management-oriented group combat"

any official system that does this?
