Horde chess tips

Horde chess is a variant where black has a normal piece setup, but white has 32 pawns. It is extremely similar to Dursany's chess, which was invented in 1942. White has a bigger advantage in order compared to standard, and draws are rarer. 

Black's plan:

1. You have to sacrifice a minor piece for two pawns as black in order to get behind the pawns and gobble pawns up

2. Open the rook files up

3. Target the most advanced pawns first

White's plan:

1. Make sure pawns that are attacked by minor pieces are defended twice

2. Push pawns with tempo

3. Cramp black's position
