Highground provides users with an easy interface to add their lists and then track points as ships are damaged and destroyed throughout the game. You will be able to see you and your opponent's score, who is winning and by how much. In addition, Highground gives you the option to add a timer to your game. Because X-Wing players usually play 2-3 games a night, and occasionally 6+ at tournaments, Highground was designed with preserving battery life as it's number one goal.
