An understanding of Hedgehog structures is an essential component
in any chessplayer's knowledge. These structures arise when the
black c-pawn is exchanged early on for the white d-pawn (as in the
Sicilian Defence). White then adopts a formation with pawns on c4
and e4 and Black curls up in a Hedgehog formation with pawns on a6,
b6, d6 and e6. ----- These structures are important as they can
arise from an extraordinary variety of openings including the
Sicilian Defence, the English Opening and the Queen's Indian
Defence. Play is usually highly intricate with White hoping to
exploit the natural space advantage while Black remains solid and
looks to break out of his or her carapace with the classical
thrusts ...b7-b5 and ...d7-d5. ----- Everything you need to know
about the Hedgehog systems. --- The structure emphasizes plans and
strategies. --- Written by an expert on the opening.
