CH> LORD II would be Defenders of Zentax. I highly doubt this is what you're

Wow, this game looks amazing! I will have to play this a bit. Unfortunately 
this is not the game. I don't remember exactly what BBS I played it on, but I 
primarily dialed into three different boards. One was called The Haven and ran
a really old BBS software, one was The Board Not Taken (TBNT) but almost 
positive it wasn't that one. The last one was called The Wormhole and it ran 
Pegasys BBS software. TBNT was Renegade, but don't remember what Haven was. 

The game only had a small port window in the top left corner of the screen and
had information on the entire bottom half of the screen and the right top half
dedicated to other stuff. The coolest mechanic I remember was everyone's ships
were visible in space on the grid even if they were logged off, sort of like 
LORD II is with the player showing as a grey face.
