White 1.f4:

White goes for dark square control in the center. Controlling the e5 square helps accentuate the reach of a bishop on b2, as black won't be able to blockade the diagonal with a pawn on e5. White also gets to choose when to advance his center. In general, this opening has quite aggressive intentions and we'll see how white can turn his normal development into a quick attack.

Black response 1...d5:

This is the main move. The positions and variations are very similar to the Dutch ( in fact, it is a Dutch with a tempo extra for white )

Black response 1...Nh6:

is the first move that I suggest, I'll look at this in the next chapter
