Talk:Épine Dorsale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many more references available if one simply googles "Epine Dorsale."
I don't understand how the French Defense branches of the Épine Dorsale; if blacks first move is completely different, how is it branching of from a future position. Perhaps he means that it can transform into Épine Dorsale.
- If you make the move suggested the series of moves is just a transposition of the French Defense. The French Defense is one of many openings that branches off the Epine Dorsale.ThreeE 15:21, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I'm new to chess, but this seems very similar to the Italian Game. Perhaps someone could enlighten me?Andrew zot 11:35, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

- Please elaborate more on this. Both "Épine Dorsale" and Italian Game start with 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4. Where is the difference? Please also add a reference for this article if it is really different from Italian game. Searching in internet I didn't find anything, which would prove that the term "Épine Dorsale" exists.

[edit] Redirect
I think the redirect to Giuoco Piano is somewhat dubious. Is not the Italian Game more precise? SunCreator (talk) 13:00, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Both are wrong as the Epine Dorsale can lead to either -- it isn't an opening, it is a series of moves that are very common that can lead to one of several openings. ThreeE (talk) 14:02, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Can you explain more, like what series of moves? SunCreator (talk) 14:21, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Look at the page's history before the redirect. ThreeE (talk) 22:36, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- ah, I see. Thank you. SunCreator (talk) 23:36, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
