I have to disappoint you regarding the Rook offer by Black (Phalanx) and the following spectacular moves -- they are all in its huge book, all the way to move 27. As you can see in the game score Black's 27th move is marked by an asterisk, meaning that Black's finally out of book :-) But a nice game anyway...
