BB8 and PTL

Can you reveal a green maneuver on your dial, do your BB8 boost/barrel roll (if equip), ptl, get a stress, do your green maneuver, remove the stress and perform your action, then ptl again?

Push the Limit has a "once per round" limit. And BB-8 only allows a free Barrel Roll.

So you reveal a green manoeuvre, trigger BB-8 for a free barrel roll, PtL for a free action-bar action, do your green manoeuvre, remove the stress from PtL, then perform an action.

Just to add: Don't forget that if you're stressed from the turn before, BB-8 can't trigger.

This is indeed how it works, and since you are stressed before the green move you immediately destress. And you still get your normal action after the move too assuming you didnt bump or hit a debris/rock.

But do remember like Dr Zoidberg said: BB8 triggers before you clear previous stress, so he can be EASILY shut down by stress attackers.
