Broadening Repertoire from The Torre Attack

I've played the Torre as the mainstay of my white repertoire but, at my current level, opponents are equalising very easily.

I'd like to diversify the repertoire to include some sharper lines; I've tried the London and Colle systems and they're giving similarly static middlegame positions.

Are there any recommendations which naturally fit alongside the Torre?

Thanks

1 d4 d5 2 Nc3 is discussed in The Veresov: Move by Move by Jimmy Liew. Also, A Ferocious Opening Repertoire by Cyrus Lakdawala.

"... I believe the Veresov ... is a good choice for the club and league player who is looking for an easy-to-learn way of avoiding his opponent's theoretical knowledge. It is sounder than the Blackmar-Diemer, but sharper than the Colle/London complex, and also flexible enough to permit different interpretations." - FM Steve Giddins (2003)

I do not know how things have changed since then.

I like to play the Veresov because I think it's more fun than the other non-Queen's Gambit d pawn openings. I don't think it's a great addition for someone wanting to expand on a Torre Attack repertoire though. If it were me, I'd probably explore opening with 1. Nf3. You could still end up with a Torre Attack, but you could also try out the English or Reti. A fianchettoed king's bishop along with a delayed d4 could give you Catalan-ish positions which also might appeal to you.

Try the Trompowsky vs 1...Nf6. If 2 Bg5 Ne4 you might venture 3 h4. It's certainly not static. Of course you'd need to study a lot of other Black responses. Plenty of acceptable responses for Black, and Black doesn't need to open the board or opt for sharp tactical positions. There is also a lot of theory, so you aren't likely to shock anyone. Nonetheless, it's more interesting than the Torre.

1d4 d5 2 Bg5 pseudo Trompowsky not as promising. But then 2 Nf3 should be familiar to you. 2 Nc3 if you like Veresov. 2 e4 can lead to Blackmar Diemer Gambit which has its fanatical devotees. 2 f4 is Bird's (Reverse Stonewall).

If Black plays an early d5 or c5 you could play c4 and transpose to some of the Queen's Gambit/Benoni openings.

The Zukertort Colle.  More scope for play than the regular Colle.  Not much chance for a theoretical advantage, but the player familiar with it's intricacies should have the edge.  I have found it fun to play.

written by Graham Burgess, it a repertoire book based on 1.d4 2. Nf3.

I also play the Torre attack but only as a back up. I think you should try 1 d4 c4 as white. Try Lars Schandorff's book. Its all good

Thank you all for your input - it is very much appreciated.

A fellow club member is also pushing me down the Veresov line!  I find the c4-d4 pawn structure appealling so will probably be looking down those avenues.

Once again, thanks for your input.
