Puzzles: Opening of Lines

Avatar of malachi76

Hello Team 54:

 I have put together some puzzles on opening lines and hope they will be helpful. Just for fun I also included a very nasty puzzle where 99.5% of the people who try will not be able to figure it out. You may have seen it before, but I am sure there are some people who haven't. So enjoy this weeks lesson and good luck on the last one.

Remember if a puzzle seems complicated or you cant see why certain moves are made. Just open up the move list and it should answer all of your questions. Good Luck

I use my Knights a lot, so I saw the first couple right off the bat, but the last puzzle was . . . puzzling. The sacrifice of so many pieces  . . . gutsy play.  Enjoyed them all, Thanks!!!
