Yet another possible move would then be to completely seal the third rank with:

What would happen if Fritz reponded with.

23g Me3n Hf3n Re2n Cc3w would look like a possible rebuttal but...
23s re7s de5w Me4n ed4e seems like it puts gold in a bad position.
 
I find myself often amazed at the different moves you folks come up with. I see why my ranking is quite a bit lower after reading a lot of these posts  Smiley, but if someone could offer some analysis on the horse flip that Fritz could do, I'd be interested.

The key advantage to placing the horse on f3 is that our camel cannot be pushed east.  The big disadvantage is that we cannot capture the silver camel on 23g.  However, if Fritzlein were to play

and now Karl has to protect his camel and we're threatening the g5 rabbit as well.

seems to have all the ingredients we've been looking for.  Saves our cat, blocks the camel push, threatens a silver cat, blocks the goal threat, develops our dog.
 
No other moves seem to do this much for us so I think another voice vote is appropriate.  (There's still time to object.)  I'll count me, Hannoskaj, arimaa_master, and Adanac.  That's four already.  Need 2 more.
