としたら details
Examples
supposing that; if we assume — a hypothesis the speaker sets up for the sake of argument, often counterfactual or unlikely

Supposing this plan actually happened, about how much budget would we need? neutral
仮に交渉が決裂するとすれば、次の一手を今から考えておくべきだ。

Formation
plain clause + としたらattaches to plain clause
Notes
する marking is what licenses the overt-supposition reading, distinct from
なら's anaphoric pickup of a premise already on the table.

なら is anaphoric — it takes up a premise already on the table, something said, assumed, or contextually given; としたら overtly marks its clause as a constructed supposition via する, which is why it reads naturally heading into argumentation and into questions probing a hypothetical (この計画[けいかく]が実現[じつげん]するとしたら、予算[よさん]はどのくらい必要[ひつよう]ですか).
としたら proposes a hypothesis the speaker builds for the sake of argument, often counterfactual; 場合 states a factual branch a rule or plan needs to cover, and reads far more neutral and procedural.
Both add とする to mark an overt, constructed supposition, but としたら threads into a CONDITIONAL continuation (if X, then Y follows — 予算[よさん]が足[た]りないとしたら、どうする?), while としても threads into a CONCESSION (even if X, Y still doesn't change — 予算[よさん]が足[た]りないとしても、進[すす]めるべきだ) — same hypothesis frame, opposite logical connective riding on it.
Lookalikes
The と here is not the automatic-consequence と of 押[お]すと — としたら needs the full と+する+たら frame to mark a stated hypothesis and drops と's lawlike, exceptionless reading; 明日[あした]雨[あめ]が降[ふ]るとしたら imagines a scenario, 雨[あめ]が降[ふ]ると states a rule.
