About this repertoire

The Nimzo-Larsen Attack (1.b3) is a flexible opening that controls the center from the sides rather than head-on. While less common than traditional openings like 1.e4 or 1.d4, it lets White create unique positions where understanding key ideas matters more than memorizing specific moves. The opening is built around controlling light squares, getting the bishop to a strong position on the long diagonal, and choosing the right moment to strike in the center.

Questions about pre-made repertoires

Is Hanging Pawns' Nimzo-Larsen free?

Yes. Every pre-made repertoire on Chessbook is free to add. The free Starter plan holds up to 200 moves across your repertoires; Chessbook Pro removes the limit.

What happens when I add it?

The lines are copied into your own repertoire, trimmed to the positions that actually occur at your rating. From there you can edit any move, add lines from other sources, and drill everything with spaced repetition.

Can I combine it with my own White openings?

Yes. A Chessbook repertoire is one tree per colour, so a pre-made repertoire sits alongside anything you add yourself and the coverage report treats them as one.

Train it with spaced repetition

Add the repertoire, set your rating, and Chessbook schedules every move until you never forget it.
