ED> Hello all, this is the first time I've posted on fidonet. Haven't really
ED> been involved with bbses since 99 but recently started working
ED> on getting my old renegade board up with the collection of doors
ED> that I grew up with and enjoyed greatly. However, one of them I've
ED> never been able to find in all these years. One of the first bbses
ED> I dialed into had this game that reminded me of Star Trek, but it
ED> didn't have that name to my knowledge. I remember there was a
ED> space grid that you would move your space ship on with similar mechanics
ED> as LORD II, but you could attack other player ships and then take
ED> them over and I remember you would issue like commands as captain
ED> and stuff. I realize that's not a whole lot to go off of, but anyone
ED> by chance remember what one it was? I only saw it on the one
ED> bulletin board, so I assume it was a more obscure door. Thanks in
ED> advance!
Maybe Space Quest 2112? There is a DOS Door and a Win32 server. telnet to
shsbbs.net:2112 to check it out! It's pretty fun and more arcade than turn
based. I don't know if you can take over other ships though, so this might
not be what you're refering to.
