Answer:

strength: They excelled in large battles fought by a mass of troops on open ground. They also had far more experience firing artillery than Americans had. The British forces were well supplied, as well. Unlike the pitifully equipped Continental army, they seldom lacked for food, uniforms, weapons, or ammunition.

weakness: They lacked gunpowder, rifles, food, and clothing. Some men had only spears or axes for weapons. organized, untrained army and a small navy. Their weaknesses were far more obvious than their strengths.

Explanation: hope this helped :)
