So first time flying a Y-Wing last night and this questions came up. Fel had performed his PTL actions and was stressed. Later in the combat phase, he was successfully ioned. So when it came to the next movement phase he could only move forward one. Since this is not a green maneuver on his dial is he still stressed? I played it that way and kept locking him down. Much easier task now that he can't double focus and evade. Did I do this right?
Stressed and Ion Interceptor question
That is correct.

Yes. An ionized interceptor can still perform actions, but a stressed and ionized interceptor cannot. Therefore, it is quite unwise to use push the limit near ion turrets. The better strategy is to just focus, take an ion or two but clear the turret from the table asap.
As a note: it doesn't matter whether the maneuver dial shows a 1 forward as green or not, the ionned movement is specified as a white 1 forward, so it will never clear stress.

Ahhh. Glad to know I was playing it right. So you have to ion and be in position to focus fire like crazy.
Ran Dutch, a suped up Ibby with HLC, and Garven. All PS6 so Garven would shoot first pass the focus to Dutch who would TL, focus on Fel with Ibby shooting last with the free TL and her own focus. Pretty nice little combo. Doing this allowed me to put opportunist on Ibby and still get the TL, focus combo without needing PTL.

Unless R2 Astromech...
