Militias were effective against the British due to their familiarity with the local terrain, allowing for guerrilla tactics and ambushes that exploited British vulnerabilities. Their decentralized structure enabled quick mobilization and adaptability, making it difficult for the British army to engage them in traditional battles. Additionally, the strong motivation of militia members, driven by a desire for independence, fostered a high level of morale and commitment that outmatched the British forces.

Colonial Militias posed a problem for the British as they did not fight with the same uniform tactics as armies in Europe did.
The British soldiers typically came from the mainland UK (although some did come from other colonies). They were full-timers, who soldiered for a living. The militias were raised from local residents, who served on a part-time basis.
The British did not support Loyalist militias adequately.
