==History== | ||
The earliest recorded game to feature the Stonewall Attack would appear to have been ] vs ], London, 1842. The first player to use the opening regularly, however, was the ] master ], who frequently opened 1.d4 2.f4 from 1876 to 1882. Employing this unusual move order Ware was often able to reach Stonewall type positions (although later players would usually precede f4 with moves such as e3, Bd3 and Nd2). Ware's greatest success with the opening was at the exceptionally strong ] where he defeated future world champion ]. | |||
As the name implies, the Stonewall setup is a solid formation which is hard to overrun by force. If Black fails to react energetically to the Stonewall setup, White may launch a lethal attack on the black ], typically by playing the ] from f3 to e5, advancing the g-pawn to drive away the defending black knight, and making a well-timed ] ] at h7 (see ]) when White can bring one of the {{chessgloss|major pieces}} (] and/or ]) to the h-{{chessgloss|file}}. Often this attack is so powerful that White does not need to develop the ] on b1 and bishop on c1. Traditionally, ]s have been vulnerable to the Stonewall because the positions are usually without clear tactical lines. White simply prepares for an assault by bringing pieces to aggressive posts, without making immediate tactical threats. By the time the computer realizes that its ] is under attack, it is often too late. This, however, is not the case with newer chess computers. | |||
In 1893 ] had notable success with the Stonewall Attack during the two New York tournaments of that year, venturing the opening on six occasions and winning all six. After Pillsbury's success the Stonewall Attack became established in master play and appeared frequently in the games of American masters ] and ], and English master ]. Other prominent players to have used the opening included ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ] and ]. By the early 1920s the Stonewall Attack began to disappear from top level chess, although it remains a popular choice at club level. The most notable modern day practitioner is American ] Yaacov Norowitz who has played the opening extensively in online blitz with considerable success. | |||
The downsides to the Stonewall are the {{chessgloss|hole}} on e4, and the fact that the dark-squared bishop on c1 is completely blocked by its own pawns. If Black defends correctly against White's attack, these strategic deficiencies can become quite serious. Because of this, the Stonewall Attack is almost never seen in ] chess any more, although it is seen occasionally among club players. However, the Stonewall variation of the ] by Black is seen occasionally at master level. (During the 1980s and 1990s, GMs like Yusupov and other Russian players often employed the Stonewall as Black, and effected a major revival of the whole system.) | |||
The Stonewall set-up, when employed by Black, remains one of the main options within the ] and has been used by ] to defeat ] and ]. | |||
Black has several ways to meet the Stonewall. One choice which must be made is whether to ] one or both bishops; Black can meet the Stonewall with ...b6 and ...Ba6 aiming to trade off the dangerous white bishop on d3, and a {{chessgloss|kingside}} fianchetto with ...g6 takes away White's idea of attacking h7. An early development of Black's light-squared bishop to f5 also cuts across White's plans. | |||

==Description== | ||
White's Stonewall pawn formation gives good control of the central dark squares (particularly e5, which may provide an outpost for a knight). The light squared weaknesses are covered by minor pieces (Bd3, Nd2). If permitted to do so, White may launch a direct kingside attack involving ideas such as Bxh7, Qh5 and Rf3-h3. A 1981 article in Chess Life magazine<ref name=evans>{{cite magazine |author=Larry D.

Since the Stonewall system is used against a variety of Black defenses, the '']'' (''ECO'') has trouble classifying it. Among the codes used are D00 (when Black has played ...d5), A45, and A03 (the code for ]). | |||

The Stonewall Attack is a chess opening characterized by White playing pawns to d4 and e3, bishop to d3, knight to d2, and then completing the Stonewall structure by playing pawns to c3 and f4. This set-up is usually achieved by a 1.d4 move order but transposition is also possible via Bird's Opening, 1.f4. The Stonewall Attack is a system; White heads for a very specific pawn formation, rather than trying to memorize long lines of different variations. Black can set up in various ways in response, but MCO-15 gives the following as a main line: 1.d4 d5 2.e3 Nf6 3.Bd3 c5 4.c3 Nc6 5.f4.
This article uses algebraic notation to describe chess moves.History
The earliest recorded game to feature the Stonewall Attack would appear to have been Howard Staunton vs John Cochrane, London, 1842. The first player to use the opening regularly, however, was the Boston master Preston Ware, who frequently opened 1.d4 2.f4 from 1876 to 1882. Employing this unusual move order Ware was often able to reach Stonewall type positions (although later players would usually precede f4 with moves such as e3, Bd3 and Nd2). Ware's greatest success with the opening was at the exceptionally strong Vienna tournament of 1882 where he defeated future world champion Wilhelm Steinitz.
In 1893 Harry Nelson Pillsbury had notable success with the Stonewall Attack during the two New York tournaments of that year, venturing the opening on six occasions and winning all six. After Pillsbury's success the Stonewall Attack became established in master play and appeared frequently in the games of American masters Jackson Showalter and Frank Marshall, and English master F.J. Lee. Other prominent players to have used the opening included Lasker, Capablanca, Alekhine, Chigorin, Rubinstein, Tarrasch, Reti, Tartakower, Maroczy and Breyer. By the early 1920s the Stonewall Attack began to disappear from top level chess, although it remains a popular choice at club level. The most notable modern day practitioner is American IM Yaacov Norowitz who has played the opening extensively in online blitz with considerable success.
The Stonewall set-up, when employed by Black, remains one of the main options within the Dutch Defence and has been used by Magnus Carlsen to defeat Viswanathan Anand and Fabiano Caruana.
Description
White's Stonewall pawn formation gives good control of the central dark squares (particularly e5, which may provide an outpost for a knight). The light squared weaknesses are covered by minor pieces (Bd3, Nd2). If permitted to do so, White may launch a direct kingside attack involving ideas such as Bxh7, Qh5 and Rf3-h3. A 1981 article in Chess Life magazine gave the following line as an example of how play can develop if Black defends weakly.
- 1.d4 d5 2.f4 Nf6 3.e3 e6 4.Nf3 c5 5.c3 Nc6 6.Bd3 Bd6 7.0-0 0-0 8.Nbd2 b6 9.Ne5 Bb7 10.g4 Qc7 11.g5 Nd7 12.Bxh7+ Kxh7 13.Qh5+ Kg8 14.Rf3 f6 15.Rh3 fxe5 16.g6 1–0
While such primitive tactics cannot be expected to succeed against experienced chess players, the illustrative games below demonstrate that in the Stonewall's heyday White was often able to develop a dangerous initiative even against master level opposition.
The disadvantages of the Stonewall Attack are a rather inflexible pawn structure, long-term light square weaknesses and the 'bad bishop' on c1, constrained by White's own pawns.
