Was shooting another army's officers forbidden in the Revolutionary War?

It wasn't forbidden, it just wasn't really done. Up to about that point in time, the weapons used by most armies were not accurate enough to target a particular person at any sort of range. When the colonists brought out their long range rifles and started picking off people at a couple hundred yards, warfare changed. There were some battles in which the shooting of officers served as a key turning point in the fight.
