During the French and Indian War, French troops employed conventional European combat tactics, often fortified in established positions and relying on alliances with Native American tribes for guerrilla support. In contrast, American patriots during the Revolutionary War favored asymmetrical warfare, utilizing guerrilla tactics, ambushes, and engaging in hit-and-run strategies that leveraged their knowledge of the terrain and support from local militias.
