Assault
This actor is similar to a Battle but is for the Assault system in the Pendragon Nobles Handbook
The data is spread across the header section and founr tabs (one for each Turn in the assault). Unless specified only the GM can enter data or drag/drop things on the sheet, but players (if set up with some ownership) can view the fields.
Title & Description - enter a title for the assault and just below a short description.
padlock - toggle the padlock icon to lock/unlock the sheet
quill - toggle the quill icon to show/hide the Outcomes sheet - this is somewhere for you to record resolutions of events
person - double click on the person icon to remove any NPC tokens from the canvas
swords - click the sword icon to add all tokens on the canvas to a combat
scroll - click on the scroll icon to show/hide the Notes sheet - a space to record notes about the event

You can drag and drop characters on to the Assault sheet and they will show up beneath the Knight Value. Click on the icon to open the character sheet. When the Assault sheet is unlocked you will see a broom icon beneath the image - double click it to remove the Character from this sheet (the Character itself is not deleted).
At the top right of the tab you will see an orange "help" icon that will open this page from the Wiki.
This is the first turn in the assault - The Assault Turn
Assault Foes Table Drag and drop a Roll Table on to the sheet. You cna only have one Roll Table on the sheet. The Roll Table should have the relevant information in the Description section of each result.
e.g. Attack: Crossbow, Skill Value: 10, Damage: 1D6+10
Roll for all characters - clicking on the dice icon will make a roll on the above table for each Character on the Assault sheet with the results displayed as chat messages. The system does not make the actual rolls so as not to remove player agency.
This is the second turn in the assault - Taking the Walls
Wins - record how many encounter wins are achieved
Needed - this is number of wins the characters need to proceed to the next turn. It is calculated based on the number of characters on the Assault sheet
Roll for all characters - click on the dice icon to roll a random encounter for each of the characters. The results will be displayed in a chat message. Encounters marked as "used" will be excluded from the roll. Please note that the roll will allow multiple Archer encounters - if this happens I suggest you roll again.
Encounters/Opportunities - drag and drop Encounters and Opportunities to this section - they will automatically be split in to the correct section.
