    What a game! the game is 27 moves long, but litterally 50% (13 moves) of mine were all  knight moves, including a fury of checks at the end that won in tactical splendour!

    You can't help but smile at the power of knights after a game like this:

    nice, i like how you moved the opponent's king to the center and attacked him constantly.

    Thanks Ry, yeah he was pretty much finished once out in the open - a nice king hunt!

    Tarzan - I agree with you, which is why in the opening moves I pointed out that I 'force the issue' meaning that I trade off my bishop for the knight. Of all exchanges, this one is the most important in the opening system I use with queen pawn type openings. Also, towards the end, when I mention that I take the bishop, that is in exchange for a knight that was already dead, out of position, and who had already taken a rook! If possible, I would rather have kept him, but he served his cause nobly.Wink
