Taking advantage of scenario knowledge

[Skryabin]

Well I was lucky to get from my decent opponents such a nice advice :) Is there anyone who starts an unfamiliar scenario without opening and studying it in advance?

I never look ahead of time. I prefer my opponent to pick the scenario, 'cause I hate to, but when I do, I look at the Blitz database and try to find something that's been played a lot with pretty equal results. I'd prefer not knowing what my opponent has, where he has it, where his reinforcements might enter or if he's getting any, how many airstrikes, etc. Not knowing and planning a strategy that relies on how well you can recon is half, or even most, of the fun. At least for me.

WOW! I have to try this some time... If you will have an opening and select some scenario you never played, I will be glad to have you as an opponent. I will not look ahead of time too. Will see what happens :)
