1.d4 for Black Against the Sidelines – Jospem’s Repertoire by GM Jose Martinez Alcantara and GM Pier Luigi Basso completes the trio of courses covering Black's full response to 1.d4. This course offers a powerful and practical repertoire against systems where White avoids an early c4—such as the Trompowsky Attack, London System, Jobava London, Veresov Attack, Colle System, and others. With 10 theoretical chapters, 30 test positions, a Memory Booster, and multilingual PGN files, the course is designed for players seeking clarity and confidence against these tricky lines. Together with the Nimzo-Indian and Bogo-Indian courses, it forms a complete bulletproof repertoire for Black against 1.d4.
