quasimorphs invading the moon. PLS help

[he-lo]

Im kinda new, I started last week and just today alot of quasimorphs showed up attacking the moon and then the meter started going up (which i didnt know could happen on the moon!) and i keep dieing cause i dont have that much cigarettes or alcohol. What do i do?

Most of the fellas on the moon are extremely weak to cut damage, so a semi auto/automatic shotgun would clear most of them, but be wary of the 3 action point wheelchair dudes and the ones that have the crossbow and wheel of pain, because those will tear you apart fast.

Also the Baron is just a slow walking punching bag

It happens everywhere outside of Mars and its moons but some stations may occasionally have no morphs too.
You cant reliably keep meter down - it needs lots of smokes, booze and morphine. Instead keep eye on morphosis and if it goes beyond 400-500 dont go to new floor. Clear current floor as much as posible and find good room to hunker down. Room that has only one 'not a dead end' entrance (dead ends must be cleared), clear line of sight at entrance or corridor morphs will come rushing through and ideally some strong obstacle to stand behind and shoot over - concrete block or indestructible metal container. Shelfs and crates will mess you more than enemy. If you need to keep door open drop there piece of fabric or any other trash.
Take cover in that room at 800-850 morphosis. Wait couple of turns or eat some human flesh (infection can be cured with sorbent so cooking it is not necessary) - at 1k morphosis Rupture happens. All umans ecolapse spawning morphs. All spawned morphs rush to your location. Baron spawns ~ 2-3 rooms away from you and thats why dead end rooms must be short. More important on Venus and Mercury cause their barons are fast and ranged but getting attacked from 2 direction is not good on Moon either.
Blast everything with autoshotguns. Even shotgun pistol is usually enough but having some space behind you to step back from random full-armored Magn with crossbow/wheel rifle is usefull.
Baron will come in, youll blast it and morphosis drops to 0 with all remaining morphs evaporating.

Can use this to your advantage if you are willing to mess around with it.

This definitely helps but i do have one question, can tezlacin or what ever his name is, have his quasimorphs attack mars?

[zverozvero]

Yes. They can issue base capture mission anywhere and will likely do it themselves even if you wont take it. If you do mission against Tezctlans base on mars Q-meter will be fixed at 100 but wont grow.

Ok that's good to know to, thanks!

hi just to add that sometimes picking a room or corridor which has destroy-able walls can also be a good place to fight from, since you can punch a hole (shoot) in a line of walls, so that you can duck into it from time to time, potentially breaking line of sight with you on run mode to peak out, shoot, and duck back in :)

(this can be especially useful if you are in a corridor, with an actual room adjacent to you, with 1 or 2 wall tiles in between)
