In Response To: Tricky (?) 55 - Opening game (Wolfgang)

First of all, thank you for your contributions. There is a lot of useful information you gave me. I think that I've underrated the value of this early outer prime formation. Instead of 21/11(2), I decided to play the ordinary 10/5*(2) 21/16(2).

The idea of changing the cube position is very interesting. Now, same position, but the opponent owns the cube.
