here, there are several choices. Opening is sometimes the most important part of the game.
Now you can either move your knights out to try and hold back the pawn's. You can also move up your king pawn to match adept, or sacrifice your queen pawn to put adept off his feet. (for queen pawn) If he takes you, you move your queen up, if not, then you can move that pawn forward again or take his pawn, gaining more control of the board. The King pawn is the more conservative move, the Queen pawn is a bolder, risker move.
Ummm, can I turn the board round? :D :D
OK Mat, thanks for the advice, I am gonna jump in with both feet, move the Queen Pawn up two - from D7 to D5
On a side note, why not move a pawn that allows you to get a bishop out first?

Fool's mate from here:
(All white moves)
After the pawn is moved, they move the Queen to H5.
Then , you move the Bishop (on F1) to C4.
Then, the kill Move the queen to F7.
Instant Checkmate in 4 moves. :D
**EDIT**
Now, if certain moves are made by plack, it can completely destroy the chance of a Fool's mate. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

The queen pawn also allows you to get the queen out sooner and hopefully more controll of the board. (but so does the qking pawn)
The difference is mainly a slow fortification, or a set of skirmishs.. With the taking of pieces early like this you are making the centre of the board open. You get the chance to make a few piece controling the board more efective, and your also keeping things clear for the larger pieces to have more sway. That type of game the pace can change dramaticly.
Hmmm I guess I meant the pawns at B and G...
Any who, lets see if this works

But one or two moves can really mess it up, and leave you wide open.
This shall to prove quite interesting and entertaining. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Thanks for all the comments folks.
It's great to see so much participation.
I apologize for the delay, but my weekend was so hectic that coming in to work today was actually relaxing! :rolleyes:
So, since <a href="http://www.chesscorner.com/tutorial/basic/scholars/scholars.htm" target="_blank">this trick</a> has already been compromised, I'll have to change my overall strategy! :p
2w. Nc3
Reason:
Developping my knight at c3 targets the d5 pawn at its current position while also covering e4 if Noonoo feels a bit aggressive. Should d4 be played instead, that may throw me off balance for a couple of moves but I'm relatively confident that I'll be in a better position after the altercation.
Hmmmm.... so the board looks like this... N stands for Knight?
