The Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack opens the long diagonal before White commits the center. Learn when c4 or d4 should challenge Black's pawns, how Bb5 creates useful pressure, why Bxf6 can reshape an Indian setup, and how the b2-bishop joins a direct attack on g7.
Follow eight guide routes: four from White's side and four from Black's. Compare the Modern, Classical, and Indian structures, then rehearse the ...Qh4+ defense and the Qg4 mating battery. Complete any line to save its progress locally.

Source position: the lines, legal moves, and evaluations come from the Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack guide. Its five tests appear here with their answers: exf6 (-0.22), Ne5 (-0.17), Bxg7 (+1.94), d5 (-0.12), and d5 (+0.05).
These 16 positions cover book moves, plans, structures, tactical punishments, a mating pattern, and a queenless transition. Every Learn route appears twice, and each wrong choice is a legal move with an immediate board consequence.

Choose one of six Larsen starts and set the bot from 600 to 2500. The coach recognizes the base diagonal, each seeded branch, the ...Qh4+ resource, the e5 outpost, and the Qg4 mating battery.
The six starts contain the five-move base, all three seeded book variations, the Qg4 mating set piece, and the Classical e5-outpost position. Each gives White and Black opposite, observable targets.
Three directions, each with a reason. Everything below links to a page that exists today.
