It is certainly aggressive (perhaps excessively so). Here is an
interesting game from a Winboard match I ran:
[Event "?"]
[Site "?"]
[Date "1999.08.10"]
[Round "?"]
[White "Arasan 5.2"]
[Black "Anmon 4.62"]
[Result "1/2-1/2"]
[ECO "D21"]
[TimeControl "300+5"]
1. d4 d5 2. c4 dxc4 3. Nf3 Qd6 4. e4 Qb4+ 5. Nfd2 Nc6 6. Bxc4 Nxd4
7. O-O Nf6 8. e5 Ng4 9. Re1 b5 10. Nb3 Qxc4 11. Nxd4 c5 12. Nb3 Be6
13. h3 Rd8 14. N1d2 Nxf2 15. Kxf2 Qh4+ 16. Kf1 Bf5 17. Na5 Bxh3
18. gxh3 Qxh3+ 19. Kf2 Qh2+ 20. Kf1 Qh1+ 21. Kf2 Qh2+ 22. Kf1 Qh1+
23. Kf2 Qh2+ 1/2-1/2 {Draw}
I don't think the double piece sac is sound (after 18. Qf3 it appears
White would be better), but it does get your attention!
