Forget Blitz2.1, it's old and buggy. Get the latest AmiBlitz from Aminet, Bernd has done a lot of great work bugfixing and improving it from the original BB2.
..also see Bernd's Amiblitz dir (http://www.david-mcminn.co.uk/bernd/) with his latest betas.

Blitz supports the AGA chipset and Amos doesn't.  As for RTG you're still better off using C or something that doesn't bang the hardware like both Amos and Blitz do.

IIRC Blitz has a hardware banging Blitz mode and a system friendly Amiga mode.  Use the Amiga mode and you'll be alright.
