Need Help on an aggressive d4 opening repertoire..

Any suggestions for just sharp positions... I wants to avoid positional play guys..

Thanks,
Aman
@Aman1122 If you want a lot of attacking games then play 1.e4, Kings Gambit, Grand Prix Attack, Reti Gambit and Panov Attack.

When I started out chess 2 years ago, I found myself strongly preferring positional chess over tactical chess. I would lose a lot of games tactically. But now I have gotten more experience and my ability in tactical situations has significantly improved. So maybe with time you will enjoy positional chess more.
The Colle System is aggressive. It is characterized by d4, Nf3, e3, c3, Bd3, O-O, Nbd2, Re1 and then white prepares e4 with attack on the king's side. Edgar Colle scored some beautiful wins with it.
If you want something aggressive then theres no doubt 1. e4 is far superior
@Water_Flame You have the common misconception "e4 is tactical, d4 is positional" However this is wrong. There are wild aggressive lines in d4 (Jobava-Prie, Trompowsky), and calm, positional lines in e4 (c3-d3 italian)
@savagechess2k I don't think @Water_Flame means it cut and dry, just that 1.e4 is more commonly known as having the sharp, open and thus tactical variations, at least more frequently than in 1.d4, but yes of course there are exceptions. The OP wants tactical chess so that's why I recommended 1.e4 as well, but some Queen's Pawn Openings are aggressive like the Colle, Mason (aka London) and Trompowsky
