Attacks with stones perhaps (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sets on

'attacks' is the definition.
('set on' can be a synonym of 'attack')

'stones perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates an anagram.
'stones' is an anagram of 'SETS ON'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Another definition for sets on that I've seen is " Attacks".)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
