Help with aggressive d4 repertoire

So I'm looking for aggressive lines against the d4 defenses. Any suggestions?

If you can play positionnal chess the NimzoIndian will lead to aggressive games if you play for it as black (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4!?)

Otherwise the gruenfeld defense (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5!?) lead to open and sharp middlegames (unless both players try to get into a quiet game).

The budapest defense as well leads to open and imbalanced games (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e5!?)

But when I want a sharp and positionnal game as black vs d4, I usually go for the clarendon court (1.d4 c5 2.d5 f5?!). This opening is objectively not good, however if white makes a few mistakes in the opening black can get a really good game with attacking chances everywhere, and since it is so unusual really few players know how not to waste moves in there. But as I said, the opening is bad, so be sure to have analyzed and being familiar with what is going on in the positions that arises before playing it, otherwise you will just end up in a passive position with weaknesses and in which white has almost no bad moves (which means really easier to play for him)

Thanks man but I guess I should have clarified. I'm looking for lines for white against black. The sharper variations I can throw at blacks defenses.

I oops'ed and made a duplicate thread. So you can lock this thread if need be

Hmm, maybe the veresov attack? Never played it myself but I seem to recall it being pretty aggressive...

Against the Leningrad Nimzo-Indian you'll build a pawn wall that compliments your lightsquared bishop and if white plays incorrectly early black even has an advantage due to the now misplaced bishop!

I'm not really looking for a system like the veresov. I'm looking for lines against the QGD/Slavs and Indian defenses. Like a exchange QGD, f3 Nimzo, g4 slav, four pawns KID, etc, etc. Not saying I want to play those lines specifically I'm just giving examples.

there are aggressive variations in every opening but because of the nature of chess and especially 1.d4 positions the aggression happens later

eh.

i prefer a bayonet attack against the KID.

Semi-Slav: 5.Bg5, going for the Botvinnik after 5...dxc4 and the anti-Moscow gambit 5...h6 6.Bh4

Slav: Tolush-Geller gambit 4...dxc4 5.e4 b5 6.e5

QGA: 3.e4

QGD: Exchange with castling long

KID: Four pawns attack

Benoni: flick-knife (with f4 and Bb5+)

Grunfeld: Exchange

Nimzo: Hardest to play aggressively against, maybe 4.Qc2 followed by 5.e4 if possible

Dutch: 2.Bg5

If you find something good against the Benko Gambit, let me know... :-(

It's not the opening, it's the player. You can play the QGD super aggressively (lots of old Spassky games like that, also Kasparov) or you can make it a snooze-fest.

The book https://www.everymanchess.com/starting-out-1-d4-a-reliable-repertoire-for-the-improving-player.html could give you something to start with.
