Is it possible to get more than 1 stress token? At first it seems that obviously no, but a few special abilities leand themselves to it, and the rule book specifically says remove one stress token when you take a green maneuver.

Examples of specials that lend themselves to more than 1 stress token include Tycho's ignoring stress token for actions+push the limit or expert handling and Kath's dealing stress for canceling crits.

There are indeed some ways to gain multiple stress tokens, only one of which would be removed with each green maneuver.

This has happened to me. I've gotten a stress token, then recieved a Crit that applied another one. It sucks but you can't get more than one.

A question regarding that then, if you were playing with Soontir Fel, he would be able to get multiple focus tokens then right? You just can't get duplicate actions during your action step or am I mistaken?

RogueLieutenant said:

You are correct. You can only take 1 focus action during a round, but if there is another way to gain a focus token (such as Garven Dreis or Fel) then you can end up with (and spend) multiple focus tokens during the round.

I don't think that you can get more than one action of the same, even a free focus, I remember that I read that in the rules, greettings.

That will be interested, please, What saids the moderators???, greettings.

They have said exactly what dbmeboy said. This is one of the questions in the FAQ.

radiskull said:

Oh Yes the FAQ said that this is the reference, thanks, greettings.

Q: Can a ship have more than one focus or evade token assigned to it?

A: Yes. A ship cannot perform the focus or evade actions more than once during a round, but a game effect (such as Garven Dreis’ pilot ability) may assign additional tokens to a ship.

yes if you take tycho celchu in an a wing with the push the limit card you can end up with a lot of stress tokens, my record is 6 in one game.

Really 6 Wow, and you could remove all, or you finish the game with this???, greettings.

Each green maneuver removes a single stress. So the odds of you cleaning them off is pretty small.

But Tycho doesn't care, that's the whole point

Buhallin said:

The only problem will be that it can't perform a red Maneuver, but I think it will be overpass, greettings.

This needs a FAQ soon. Due to I can't see where it says you can get more than one. And I see why you should.

Pg 17

"While a ship has at least one stress token, it cannot execute red maneuvers or perform any actions (even free actions)."

The "at least one" makes it quite clear that ships may have more than one Stress token. There are several ways in the game to gain more than one Stress token, this would have been explicitly noted as not allowed if it were capped at 1. This really doesn't need an FAQ.

Perhaps someone can help me to understand this a bit better.

What's the point to racking up all the stress tokens if they have no (in this case apparently) negative consequences to being put on a unit?

For example, my friend ran Tycho with Push the Limit and racked up several Stress Tokens. Is there not a downside at all to having multiple Stress Tokens on a ship other than not being able to execute Red manuevers? If that's the case, seems like Tycho and Push the Limit should always be in your army.

I've only played a few times now, so be gentle in the rebuffs my friends.

You actually point out the reason for tracking it - other than not being able to execute Red maneuvers. Even then, I'll frequently just tell an opponent "I'm just going to assume Tycho can't do reds for the rest of the game, and stop tracking it."

As for that making Tycho an auto-include... Meh. He's still an A-wing, which tends to be undergunned compared to other ships. Tycho can do some impressive things, but for his 30 points, there are plenty of other impressive options for the Rebels.

yes if you take tycho celchu in an a wing with the push the limit card you can end up with a lot of stress tokens, my record is 6 in one game.

Six? Amateur. I had probably about 20 on Tycho one game. I just kept using PTL every turn and avoiding red maneuvers, and just kept stacking and stacking them. We ran out. =^D

Most I ever had on tycho was 12.

I was playing a friend who was using Tycho and said at the beginning he was planning to set a new record. First turn, Krassis went 4, Tycho went 5, and I one shotted him with my HLC.

I asked him if that was a new record.

Good? Bad? I'm the guy with the laser cannon.

I actually just played against a tournament build that was designed around this very idea. Three B-wings with E2 upgrade and tactician so they can stress targets for free at range 2 during an attack and pile them on that were accompanied by a Y-Wing that with ion turret.

10 Necrotic damage to anyone reading this thread now, thanks to r122583.

Is it me, or has there been a real spate of necro threads lately?

prob because of newer players like me looking for answers to questions. so here's my question: while playing recently, I k turned and got stress on an interceptor. I did not clear it and then selected another k turn by mistake. after revealing my dial, I said oops I can't do that. my opponent said yes I could I just get another stress. Was this correct? or should I not have been able to do a red manouver?
