Title: How can I play Colle System against Kingside Fianchetto?
ThreadText: # How can I play Colle System against Kingside Fianchetto?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2012-05-30)
  
  I enjoy the Colle System as white, because it often leads to a strong kingside attack for white without exposing my own King to significant danger.
  
  However, when my opponent castles behind a fianchetto on the kingside, I often struggle to understand how to attack it, as it significantly blunts the attack of my Bishop at `d3`, and advancing kingside pawns would likely open my own King up dangerously.
  
  Can anyone point me to a good example of how to attack a fianchettoed king from the Colle system?
