Finish this simile "the continental army's victory in the american revolution was "

Well, a simile can include "like" or "as," so you could say, "The Continental Army's victory in the American Revolution was as powerful as a bolt of lightning." Unless you have to use "like," then it could be, "The Continental Army's victory  in the American Revolution was like a power-punch to their enemies."

Hope this helps!
