Blitz is just a name for a first move “into a hostile, unoccupied territory”. Page 27 of the pac rulebook. Since your first move isn’t into a hostile territory, its not a blitz, Mr. Pain is correct, I believe.
What you can do for fun, however, is to represent the Flying Tiger fighter using a green P-40 Warhawk sculpt borrowed from the A&A 1941 game. It’s the actual plane model which the Flying Tigers used during the war. This substitution has no effect on game play, but it’s a nice bit of chrome which makes the Flying Tiger unit look more distinctive.
Blitz: A mechanized infantry unit must normally stop
when it enters an enemy controlled territory. However,
when paired one-for-one with a tank, it can make a blitz
movement (see “Tanks,†page 29) along with that tank. The movement of both units must start and end in the
same territories.
Transports may not attack without being accompanied by at least 1 unit with an attack value, unless they are conducting an amphibious assault from a friendly sea zone that is free of enemy submarines.
This should read “Transports may not attack in a sea battle without being accompanied by at least 1 unit with an attack value.”
