Attacks a2/a7, b2/b7 and c2/c7 ECO A by FTB
Compiled by fredthebear
--*--

These games feature a piece capturing a queenside pawn or two, for better or worse, and queenside checkmates. This pawn removal may or may not be materially important to the eventual outcome of the game. (The pawn capture sometimes serves as a self-inflicted displacement of the capturing piece leaving it out-of-bounds.) Again, the pawn capture on the queenside may have little or no impact on the outcome.

This is a collection split by Fredthebear. ECO codes B & C have been removed to their own collections.
