Game of Fog of War


Been enjoying a couple fog a war chess games against higher ranked players. This one was a slog through the end, but I managed a win. There are certain styles I do better at. Some of the all out guns blazing players are harder to deal with, IMO (even if they're lower ranked). 
Here, I played a kind of defensive set up that ended up working pretty well. 
By the time the end game comes along, I was pretty solid. Enough to go for the queen sacrifice. 
And with the two pawns sitting up there, I needed a little bit of luck, of course. But I knew where their king was so that was helpful. 

And I knew where their queen was, so that was helpful. 
So though they take one of the pawns, I still had the rook check.  A kill off ensues. And we're left with something like an endgame, where I was aware of all their pawns. 


Ultimately, that rook at the end was too powerful. So go play here and see what you think.
