Overview

Indian Defense: London System is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A46), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

The Flank Openings group covers flank openings — systems that delay the central pawn break and instead develop pieces and pawns on the wings.

The line arises from 5 plies — specifically the moves 1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 e6 3. Bf4.

The line refines Indian Defense: Knights Variation, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
