jfa: do you think 2.Nf3 is any more "attacking" than Nc3? There is no direct threat early in the game with either move. I just don't like playing Nf3 because it gives Bg4 strength. Whereas Nc3 allows for a possible queenside castle with a pawnstorm if black castle kingside. isn't that a plan of attack?
