Inducing 6 perhaps to vandalise heroes' tomb (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bothersome

'inducing 6 perhaps' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'to vandalise heroes' tomb' is the wordplay.
'to vandalise' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'vandalised' mean this).
'heroes'+'tomb'='heroestomb'
'heroestomb' with letters rearranged gives 'BOTHERSOME'.

(Other definitions for bothersome that I've seen before include "causing trouble" , "Trying" , "Annoying" , "Perplexing" , "Irritating" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
