For the unaware, it's 1.e4 Nf6, which I use as my main weapon as black. It's a useful surprise attack, notable for winning Fischer the 1972 World Championship. The basic principle is that Black is hoping to draw out White's pawns, leaving him over extended. The pawns are then targets and the rest of his forces defenceless. If things go wrong Black ends up crushed.

Hi Caissasdeathangel,
Just tried that in a quick test game, it worked drawing out the white pawns

Will have to remember that one! Comp went e5, I replied Ne4, he went d3, and before I knew it he had 4 or 5 pawns drawn right out... went onto win that one
Will have to have a look at the other positions you posted
