Not really a plan but bg5 seems strong here.

Threatening either bxf6 nxd5 or nxd5 right away. If be7 ne5

Yes I go bishop to G5 as well. You don't want his bishop taking yours and forcing you to take with pawn (avoid doubled pawns) Plus, you will be "pinning" his knight in place until he can move his queen. In order to chase your bishop away he would have to furthur weaken his kingside pawn protection.

You should PM Dynasty I think he's either an expert or even a master chess player.

he can check my king with his d6 bishop if i move my bishop.
is pinning the queen > threatening his rook?

thanks for the help

nevermind about my king being in possible check, my knight is protecting h2.

bishop to h6*

Let him go ahead and check you king. Then you win a bishop for a pawn (3pts to 1pts) and your King in still in a secure position. Attacking his rook with your bishop at H6 is just a wasted move as it will just give him his excuse needed to move his rook to E8 where he wants it active anyway.

Attacking the knight on g5 essentialy renders his knight useless until he moves the queen.

you mean bishop? my rook cant fly over there. it would be cool if it could though.

let him move his rook to e8, we can move the horse to g5, thus putting more pressure on his King, which is now stuck and can't move
