General Howe

General Howe was an English general who appeared in The American Revolutionary War. He replaced Thomas Gage.
Notably, during a plan to cut the colonies in half with John Burgoyne, Howe had abandoned the plan and set out for personal glory by capturing the capital of the colonies, Philadelphia. He defeated Washington at the Battle of Brandywine Creek by using a decoy to distract Washington's forces, then hitting them from behind. Philadelphia being controlled by Britain force congress to flee to York.
After his victory, he went to brag to George III. He is last seen after getting fired by George. 
Howe and Burgoyne both left Britain, which left General Henry Clinton in charge.
