Guerrilla warfare played a crucial, though not decisive, role in the American Revolution.
Particularly used by southern militias, their hit and run tactics, ambushes, raids on supply lines and sabotage harassed British troops.
The irregular terrain, particularly in the south, favored guerrilla tactics as it allowed for concealment and surprise attacks.
