Talk:Stonewall Attack

Latest comment: 8 years ago by Cyberbot II in topic External links modified


i think that this artical would benefit greatly by running down an example opening, with the black moves included, and a breif analysis thereof. this would give people a better understanding of how black would react to the stonewall attack (perhaps both an amature and a master), and how white can turn the "well timed bishop sacrifice on h7" into real gains. --69.136.244.138 04:34, 2 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • Much of this article was based on a very old Chess Life article from 1980 or 1981. I think it was written by Larry D Evans and it was titled "Stonewalling"... it had a sample game there, I will need some time to find it though... I also looked at a Mednis article about this opening in a 1995 issue of Chess Life. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:49, 4 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
Good memory. I've added the article as a reference and the sample game. Bubba73 (talk), 14:37, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

"As the name implies, the Stonewall setup is a solid formation which is hard to overrun by force"

i was under the assumption it was for... other reasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.15.66.242 (talk) 04:20, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Attack?

Is attack really the correct name for this opening. I know it as simply the stonewall. SunCreator (talk) 00:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Oxford Companion does call it the Stonewall Attack when played by White. It is under the entry Stonewall though, but that includes by white or black. Bubba73 (talk), 03:37, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
