Bunker Hill

The battle of Bunker Hill was a major fail. The colonists were lined up on Bunker Hill, and they were majorly outnumbered, and they had insufficient ammo. When they saw the Redcoats coming up the hill, they waited until they saw the whites of their eyes to shoot to make sure that they hit them. The colonists had a huge tactical advantage because they were shooting DOWN on the redcoats coming up the hill.

The British were losing many people and finally retreated. They came back a little bit later but it gave the colonists time to recover. The British won this war because they occupied Bunker Hill, but they had great losses. The ironic thing was they didn't even need to capture Bunker Hill, it did no good for them.

All it did was made them lose many troops, pointless deaths. This was important to the American Revolution because it gave the colonists spirit and hope, and it showed them that they can win the war no matter that the British Empire is the best army in the world.

Saratoga

Battle of Saratoga (September 19 and October 7,1777).         
This battle is known outside the US as the American war of independence.
The first battle, on September 19, began when Burgoyne moved some of his troops in an attempt to flank the entrenched American position on Bemis Heights. Benedict Arnold , anticipating the maneuver, placed significant forces in his way.
Those few troops made a big difference in the big battles, because they lost many soldiers in those small battles.

Gentlemen's Warfare No Match for Guerrilla

The British used Gentleman's warfare in the Revolutionary War. It wasn't the best warfare to use, however. The Americans used Guerrilla Warfare, which allowed them to hide in bushes and surprise-attack the British. It was a hit-and-run Warfare, which meant they would attack, then run away, which made for less deaths on the American side. The British style of Warfare was that they would line up in three rows. The first row would kneel, the second row would squat, and the third would stand. If you think about it, that was very illogical because it made them very easy to kill, for they were less mobile.
