I looked over this with a little help from a German friend.
"Vat does eet do?", he sniggered when I tried 12.e5 and he kicked it with ...d6. Indeed, after 13.Nf3 Rg4 14.Qh6 Bf8! I was in a whole world of pain.

Indeed, after 10.g4 he informed me that he was headed back to e8 with the K now that he'd side-stepped the Qh5+ line. Even after the alternative 10.Nd3 he was able to cold-bloodedly defend.
