  • Searching for a childhood game

    Hi I am searching for a childhood game I used to play on a local BBS.

    Here is what I remember.
    - I can remember something like a rudimentary space map (grid like i
    think)
    - you could send ships out to explor planets and conquer them
    - you did not begin on earth but earth was to the left and it was a
    good planet to conqure
    - players could message each other pleading for mercy lol
    - I can remember entering the game alone a time and building up my
    conquerings so much it crashed the bbs beacase some number good too
    large. They sysop had to reset the game.
    - you had to go to a sector to see what was in that sector.
    - You only had one chance to make a play per day (I used to wait until
    just before midnight to make my play so i can have another turn soon
    after after the BBS did its thing)

    Cany anyone recall a door game like this?
    its not TEOS, TW, Space Realms Elite or VGA Planets.
