The Weapon Workflow manages making Ranged Combat and Melee Combat Attack Tests, along with the associated Defense Tests and Damage Resistance Tests.

• Make sure that all the Actors involved are Weapons, Ammo, and Armor (if they plan to survive, anyway).
• Add Tokens for each of the Actors to a Scene.

A Selected Token (Left) and Targetted Token (Right) (SR5 v0.17.1, FVTT v11.315)

1. Identify the target token by hovering over it with the mouse pointer and pressing T.

• Double-Click the attacking Token to open its Actor sheet; this will also Select the Token.
• Now click on the icon next to the weapon to start the test.
• The system will prompt you for your firing mode and then will roll your attack role. Distance, recoil and other mods from your weapon are automatically applied. A chat card will appear in the chat window showing you the result of the attack.
• The attacked player can now click on the 'Defense' button in the card to roll his defense roll. Firing modes, wounds etc. are automatically applied.
• Afterwards the attacked player can immediately roll his soak test. Armor piercing from the weapon / ammo automatically reduces his armor value. The result of the soak roll is posted to the chat.
• If you want to apply the damage, click on the damage value in the chat card and apply the damage to the character.
