{A well-organised king's-side attack in the Stonewall rather missed its mark
when Black refused to castle.  In the end the open lines were used by Black to
attack you instead, but there was a little undermining tactic which would have
helped you, and a pin that would have helped your opponent.} 1. d4 d5 2. e3 e6
