Tycho can perform actions while stressed. But the rule book differentiates between actions and free actions. It states that a stressed ship cannot perform free actions. How then does a stressed Tycho make use of Push the Limit?

He uses it just like normal.

A normal ship cannot perform actions while stressed, but Tycho's ability allow him to do so. It only allows him to ignore the stress token, not perform the same action multiple times or ignore other action rules.

Free actions are still actions...

Free muffin are still muffin...

Tycho's ability allows him to perform actions while stressed, not free actions. PTL grants a free action, which a stressed ship cannot make use of.

That is not correct. Tycho can PTL while stressed to take additional actions. PUSH/RAGE Tycho is the go to A-Wing build.

This build is why I carry 2 d10 with my stress tokens. It's a lot easier to put down 1 stress token and then keep track of the full total on the dice, though honestly, once the stress gets into the teens and twenties, most everyone stops counting and just assumes permanent stress.
