C13: Alekhine-Chatard Attack
I'm writing this from the white point of view so my apologies to any French players hoping this would be a refutation!
I've recently started playing this as white. So far I've been playing the Nh... Started 03/20/04 at 13:53:09 by CraigEvans « Pages 1 2 all » |

C11: Interesting var in Nc3 Nf6 french
Hi guys!
Since i don't like positions after 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. e5 Nfd7 5. f4 I started to look for alternatives for white and i found 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. e5 Nfd... Started 02/18/13 at 01:01:13 by Ender « Pages 1 2 all » |

C12: Mainline McCutcheon
I was studying the mainline McCutcheon and was surprised that 15...gxh5 seems playable. I don't think it offers Black as much 15...g5, but I thought I'd "throw it out there" in case there were any th...

Goodness knows. This stuff always leaves me very confused! It doesn't look as logical as g5 of course but then again you are wiping out whites passed pawn. Obviously many more options than jus... Started 01/21/13 at 05:06:50 by sloughter |

C12: MacCutcheon
I'm still trying to put together my French repertoire, and I think I'm leaning towards 3 ... Nf6 in response to 3 Nc3. I like the positions that arise out of the Steinitz (after 4 e5), which I think ...

I am having trouble figuring out how to meet the Alekhine-Chatard Attack (1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.Bg5 Be7 5. e5 Nfd7 6 h4!?) and equalize. Can someone point me in the right direction?
