Mortal_Games Senior Member Offline Posts: 321 Gender:	Dangerous Weapons 1.e4 e5 11/04/07 at 13:17:32 This book will be available soon. I have a question for Mr. J. Emms, A. Greet or G. Flear - Will this book have a chapter with dangerous weapons for black in the Ruy Lopez? Many thanks, I will be watching for another great book in this series.

I understand the RL, alone, could have deserved such a book but for the moment I hope this book brings lots of ideas to other e4 e5 openings such as, scoth, ponziani, vienna, etc

I haven't seen a final list of contents, but can report that my own contribution was a white repertoire on the Centre Game which spans three chapters.
I was able to put some of my research into practice in one recent game which can be found here:

Very interesting! I have wondered if the Centre Game might be worth a try, after attacking maestro Larry Christiansen presented some inspirational games with it in his book "Rocking the Ramparts".

Nice game against Georgiev, but I don't understand Pein's comment in the Telegraph link, after 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.Qxd4 Nc6 4.Qe3 Nf6 5.Nc3 Bb4 6.Bd2 0–0 7.0–0–0 Re8 8.Qg3:
"My database tells me this move has not been played for the best part of fifty years which is odd because it is a standard sacrifice in this kind of position."

Well, I thought 8.Qg3 was the very main line of the opening, as played in the famous Morozevich-Hebden, 1994 and many other games before and since. Which database was Pein using!?
