Does it give a lot of variations or does it concentrate just on the games it covers? Does it talk more plans and ideas than concrete lines?

	Ordered the DVD. French advance and Scotch out Tarrasch and Italian d3 in looks sensible. "An attacking repertoire for white" is a nice book. He has an engaging style. c3 Sicilian is more aggressive then you would think, certainly at lower levels. I found his inclusion of Scottish Opening stranger as he was aiming for the endgame from move 5 or so.

	If 1.e4 c5 2.c3 is part of an attacking repertoire, the Velimirovic Attack should be part of a defensive repertoire. Later edit: thanks to S_F for pointing out the typo.

	The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged. GC Lichtenberg

	I saw this was just released. I think it is a very good repertoire, that is not too risky, but also not too timid, from the lines I can see. He recoomends italian with c3 against e5, c3-sicilian, french tarrasch and the panov attack. It is said the DVD has 8 hours playtime. I had already read "An attacking repertoire for white" before, and I liked it very much, tbh. it was the first opening theory book I read, and I think it was a quite good repertoire, but with my current opening knowledge I would deny to play french advance (don't like the positions at all) or the scotch (too risky for me) ... and I really like he replaced these lines in his new "improved" repertoire. I think this would be the only e4 repertoire I would play otb, all other lines in e4 are too risky and theory intense for me, and the lines he chose avoid this and are still good. The only thing I'd still like to know is if he recommends e4 e5 2. Nf3 or 2. Bc4.
