Eschewing material to x-ray f7, threatening c5, e3, Be2, and Bh5.

Disappointingly, it looks like we've got no mate in 2s on the table, so we could be here a while.

Do you rand the piece and then rand the move, or is each move equally likely?

If the second then the queen will get a lot of action.

All legal moves have an equal chance... so (the second) yes... and if a pawn has a legal move to promote that is 4 separate legal moves.

Locking the Queen out of f7. We'd obv like to play en passant here reopening our attack.

Excellent move, opens up our bishop on the f1-h3 diagonal, clamps down on any f5 ideas.

Don't forget it also creates an anchor for White to potentially play f5 himself!

I assume Kf8 is a clearance move to allow the Queen to help guard f7.

Now our f has took your e and you got no e. We got 2 es. That's a 2 to none e advantage. Forking clamp on both d5 and f5 ideas.

Black's pieces are rather silly.

This will be our first exercise from this "game"
Assuming 2 rational people sit down and finish this game, what is the BEST continuation for White here? Answer in spoiler above.
