1. e4 2. e5 3. d4 4. Nc6 5. Nc3

The Vienna Game: Fyfe Gambit is a chess opening that begins with the moves e4 e5 d4 Nc6 Nc3. In this opening, White sacrifices a pawn on move 3 to gain rapid development and initiative. By playing Nc3, White prepares to launch an attack on Black's e5 pawn. If Black captures the pawn with dxc4, White responds with Nxe5, exploiting the pin on the knight on c6. Black can choose to accept the gambit or decline it by playing other moves.

If Black accepts the gambit, White can continue with Nf3, developing the knight and attacking the pinned knight on c6. Black can defend the knight with moves like d6 or Bb4, but White will have a strong initiative and active piece development. White can then continue to develop their pieces, castle, and prepare for a kingside attack.

If Black declines the gambit, White can choose to play Nf3, developing the knight and maintaining a solid position. This allows for flexible piece development and the possibility of launching an attack later in the game.

The Vienna Game: Fyfe Gambit is an aggressive opening that aims to create imbalances on the board and put pressure on Black from the early stages of the game. It requires accurate play from both sides and can lead to dynamic and tactical positions.
