Trompowsky Attack: Raptor Variation
Overview
Trompowsky Attack: Raptor Variation is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A45), 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.
It begins with 5 plies and takes 1. d4 Nf6 2. Bg5 Ne4 3. h4 to reach the canonical position.
The line refines Trompowsky Attack, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
It continues primarily into one named line, Hergert Gambit.
