Damn Hasbro! That’s exactly why I’m confused. Like you, I’ve spent a lot of time playing AI rather than RI… :-D
That’s why I’m happy to see my laptop coming in the next week or so; no more playing the predictable AI.
Blitzing

I need some reclarification on Blitzing in A&A Revised.
Basically, I have found a contradiction in the rule book…an illustration indicates that you can move one space through your own territory and into a second enemy territory to attack it.
The Blitz information listed under the Tank entry has wording that twice indicates that such a thing is NOT possible, and that the first territory MUST be an unoccupied, enemy territory.
So, can I move through my own territory with tanks to attack the enemy?

Yes, you can blitz thorugh your own territory first. Though technically, that is not a “blitz”, that is simply regular combat movement by a tank. They have a movement of 2, and thus can move a space (through friendly territory) to reach combat in the next space.
The reason for the “unnocupied enemy” territory statements is an attempt to clarify that you can’t attack in 1 territory, fght a battle, then “blitz” forwad into a second territory and fight.

Alright, I get it…
…my friend was convinced that if you wanted to move through your own territory first, your OWN territory had to be empty.
Gotcha. Thanks! :-)
