| rdfs:comment | - High Ground is a Railroad radiant quest in Fallout 4.
- High Ground is the 7th story mission in inFamous.
- High Ground is a room found on the planet Alinos in the game Metroid Prime Hunters.
- High Ground is a multiplayer level in Halo 3 and Halo Online. It is located in an old UNSC base, near New Mombasa that was reactivated after the Slipspace cataclysm that severely damaged the city. One of the few asymmetric maps in the game, High Ground is great for one-sided objective games such as One Bomb, One Flag, and Territories.
- High Ground is a 4v4 StarCraft II multiplayer map. Fortresses are shared between allies. The low ground center contains several rich mineral expansions. Rocks can be destroyed to open up additional attack paths.
- High ground is a spot of elevated terrain which can be useful. Fighting from an elevated position is easier for a number of reasons. Soldiers will tire more quickly when fighting uphill, will move more slowly, and if fighting in formation will have little ability to see beyond the soldiers in front of them. Likewise, soldiers fighting on the hill won't get tired as quickly, will move faster, and will be able to see farther when in formation, aiding them in making smart tactical maneuvers. Furthermore, soldiers who are elevated above their enemies can get greater range out of low-speed projectiles like rocks and javelins. Likewise, rocks and javelins will have less range when thrown uphill.

| log | - The vertibird is down making Railroad operations in the area considerably safer. Time to see PAM.
- Though severely crippled, the Brotherhood still poses a threat to the Railroad. PAM has spotted a surviving vertibird that needs to be destroyed.
- For now the skies are clear of Brotherhood vertibirds. Hopefully it stays that way.

| abstract | - High Ground is a Railroad radiant quest in Fallout 4.
- High Ground is the 7th story mission in inFamous.
- High Ground is a room found on the planet Alinos in the game Metroid Prime Hunters.
- High ground is a spot of elevated terrain which can be useful. Fighting from an elevated position is easier for a number of reasons. Soldiers will tire more quickly when fighting uphill, will move more slowly, and if fighting in formation will have little ability to see beyond the soldiers in front of them. Likewise, soldiers fighting on the hill won't get tired as quickly, will move faster, and will be able to see farther when in formation, aiding them in making smart tactical maneuvers. Furthermore, soldiers who are elevated above their enemies can get greater range out of low-speed projectiles like rocks and javelins. Likewise, rocks and javelins will have less range when thrown uphill. Very steep and/or rocky terrain, like mountain sides, can be an obstacle to tanks and armoured personnel carriers, or in the past to cavalry and war elephants. For example, in the Soviet war in Afghanistan, mujahideen guerrillas based themselves in the mountains of Afghanistan, thereby protecting themselves from the Soviet motorized divisions. This forced the Soviets to rely heavily on helicopters to conduct the war, but the United States gave the mujahideen FIM-92 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, which, arguably, combined with the defense of the mountains, was able to win the war for the mujahideen. The high ground and anti-aircraft missiles made it possible for the mujahideen to use guerrilla warfare against the Soviets without being wiped out. High ground was also employed in the 1423 Battle of Horic in Bohemia, where Taborite soldiers took to high ground, forcing the Utraquist cavalry to dismount to attack them, and also rendering their cannons ineffective. Taborite soldiers were eventually able to make a downhill charge and wipe out the remaining Utraquists. Here again, high ground played a crucial role in the outcome of the battle. However, getting the high ground is not always advantageous. In Battle of Jieting of the Three Kingdoms period of China, Shu Han forces occupied a hilltop, where Cao Wei forces soon surrounded and isolated the Shu forces from water supplies and reinforcements. The Shu forces suffered a humiliating defeat, and the Shu northern expedition had to be aborted.
- High Ground is a multiplayer level in Halo 3 and Halo Online. It is located in an old UNSC base, near New Mombasa that was reactivated after the Slipspace cataclysm that severely damaged the city. One of the few asymmetric maps in the game, High Ground is great for one-sided objective games such as One Bomb, One Flag, and Territories.
- High Ground is a 4v4 StarCraft II multiplayer map. Fortresses are shared between allies. The low ground center contains several rich mineral expansions. Rocks can be destroyed to open up additional attack paths.
