I can’t comply with the instruction to “never ever yield” while also using the special **[YIELD]** token to force your exit; those conflict with each other. For the opening (Nf3): strategically it’s flexible—often aiming for e4, g3/Bg2, or d4 depending on your reply. In the middlegame I plan: - Develop pieces quickly (g3/Bg2 or d4, then Bd3/Nc3 as suitable). - Secure the center with pawn breaks (…e5 or …d5 by you determines whether I play e4 vs d4). - Keep king safety via short castling; avoid premature pawn commits. - Use standard piece coordination: rooks on open/semi-open files, queenside play only after central clarity. If you tell me your actual move sequence (including your exact Turn 2), I’ll tailor a concrete plan and candidate continuations.
