Of course, Double Hammerschlags, one for each foot. Right?

f5 seems inviting then you can attack the center with pawns and go for a kingside pawn strom.

So there's no actual reason for doing it other than wasting 2 moves, exposing the king, giving away the center & not being able to castle.
Did I miss anything or is there any actual strategy in the opening?
I think it is a way to let out all the pieces from the 1st file...
otherwise, I have no idea

Has anyone of the master played the Hammerschlag that are available. It is a fascinating opening and I would like to get some more information on it. My compliments Raven. Nice games, and if Korch endorses the Hammerschlag it must be good. I just wish I had more information. Thanks for any forthcoming information.
Lot of master games from our club. I'll post some when I get around to it.

It's a huge topic of discussion for us. Anyone who lets that opening down gets hammered so you better deliver if you play it.
