Overview

Richter-Veresov Attack: Two Knights System is a specific line in the Closed & Semi-Closed Games family (ECO D01), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

The Closed & Semi-Closed Games group covers closed and semi-closed games — 1.d4 systems characterised by long strategic manoeuvring rather than early tactics.

It begins with 7 plies and takes 1. d4 Nf6 2. Nc3 d5 3. Bg5 Nbd7 4. Nf3 to reach the canonical position.

The line is a first-level refinement of Richter-Veresov Attack.

It continues primarily into one named line, Grünfeld Defense.
