I'm sure veteran players know this by now, but others, in case you didn't know. The center beacon on the Moon can be defended from Reds above, from below! Tulumbas, Pins and Tridents can penetrate the thin flooring (or ceiling in your case). Haven't tested Pinatas and Orkans, but hey, one less trip to the top to get rid of a pesky red right? If you're above the center beacon and are experiencing "Hot Feet", there's your root cause. Treating this symptom includes booking it outta there!

the bot above should be within, at least partially, the radius of the splash dmg. shooting right below it (within <60m) gave the best chance. very effective to either chase away or kill a red and turn the beacon with RDB, more so if multiple RDBs shooting from below,

If ur on the 2nd floor, Orks and Pinatas do not work. but if you are below, nearly with splash works.
And I'm curious to see if the ancile goes all the way around and below.

One of my favorite tactics on the moon map is to run a Leo with an ancille and three noricums into that bottom rotunda. The splash damage hits those above AND those on the same level. Makes me giggle everytime I kill a bot doing that.

Triple Noricum Gepard could be as devastating in the tunnel. There is lots of splash damage involved, but compressed into a very small space. May be worth a try in fun squads. Those bots are useless in any other situation.

Orkans splash is pretty small, ive tried it with no success. And, an ancile above can mess with rocket shots below.
