Trompowsky Attack: Edge Variation
Overview
Trompowsky Attack: Edge Variation is a named branch in the Flank Openings group of chess theory, classified under ECO A45.

It begins with 5 plies and takes 1. d4 Nf6 2. Bg5 Ne4 3. Bh4 to reach the canonical position.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Trompowsky Attack, part of the broader Queen's Pawn Game system.
