Would someone like to comment on brilliancies and maybe give a few examples of what they are?

A brilliancy is a tactical play or series of plays within a game that usually involve a sacrifice or two. You'll hear it in titles such as "My Brilliant Games," and it again involves essentially brilliant game play/tactical moves, etc.
