RabidRabbit Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I think it means that both players put their orders in at the same time . . .as opposed to I go then you go . . . we both go on with our turn at the same time. I hope I"m right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Rabbit, you win a carrot. Yes, he is exactly right. IGO UGO was the traditional way to play wargames. A few did the WEGO route, with Battlefront being the first to do so in a 3d world. Wego means that, we post do the moves at the same time and let the computer then caclulate the result.

"WeGO" makes sence now, thank you. Scott 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exel Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 It's just "We Go", meaning simultaneous command turns as opposed to "I Go, You Go" or IGOUGO where first one player would move his units and then the other. Edit: Ach, slow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I might be wrong but I think that Steve coined the term when he started using it for CMBO. The concept existed before CMBO, but the terms IGOUGO and WEGO might have been born then. This probably applies to the term Clickfest, too, by the way (but then I might be wrong) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergeltungswaffe Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 He asked about the acronym. Clearly it means: Wonderfully Engineered Gaming Orders 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itael Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Well, this time in CMSF there is no "Go" Button... hence the term WEGO is a little 'broken' in this release 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
