I dont really like the look of a3, they'll always have a bishop sacrifice threat. Kb1 looks like a safer option.

OK. This looks like cyclone and we have one umbrella. Lets swing some cover over to our king, maybe Nd2 intending Nb3. Then look to playing Nf3 ASAP. I mean WTF are all our pieces doing cuddling in the corner.

We need the Knight to stop Ne3. That's dangerous. Ka1 and use the rook to defend b2 if it gets complicated. We need to move our queen off the e file though.

Black Ne3 looks dangerous but it has no got much to do there. I agree that our queen needs to be off the e file.

If Ne3 makes you nervous, lets kick it out with g4.

So, Nd2 was rejected by Heartbreak Kid.

13. g4 was also mentioned by Iconoclast.

Any other ideas?
