Slav and Caro-Kann Similar to London System
Sort:
If one likes the London System as White, is there much carryover to the Slav and Caro-Kann as black? Or am I off base in thinking this way?

Some people say that based on the pyramidal pawn structure, studying the London would help with the Caro and Slav.
I, personally, found that to be wrong. Superficially the pawn structures are somewhat similar, but I found the the development and attacking ideas to be very different from blacks perspective.
So to answer your question I would say no. Though some here would say yes.

At one time, I read that Everyman Chess had a plan to publish a London-Caro-Slav book. Eventually, there was a London book and a Caro-Slav book.

II think the slav and caro are similar in some aspects, namely the c6 d5 structure, sometimes with e6 later.
