White Plays 1.d4 without c2-c4
A complete course on the reliable Queen's Pawn Game has been gathered here, covering everything after 1.d4 d5 where White omits playing the c2-c4 advance, now or later. Instead, White opts for solid piece development with 2.Nf3, to be followed by Bg5 or Bf4 (London System and Torre Attack), or 2.Nf3 and 3.e3 - the Colle System. Besides these, White has 2.Nc3 (Veresov Opening) and even 2.e4 (Blackmar-Diemer Gambit). After 1.d4 Black can play 1...Nf6, but then comes 2.Bg5 and the Trompowski Attack - Black can't avoid these "non-c4" ideas!
