    Bombers on patrol don't seem to attack ground units.. They work fine if I click attack on the units, but I don't want to bother with that.

    What's up with that? Am I doing it wrong? What's the point of the patrol command on bombers then?

    Could very well just be beta is beta.

    I'm not sure. I haven't experimented with it.

    Anyone else use patrol?

    I use it all the time. I have never seen a bomber ignore a ground based threat.

    Agreed. Bombers always attack ground based threats for me.

    They will only attack units in a certain range from where they are however.

    They do not attack unless the vehicle comes with in range of site. Bombers do not automatically target on radar blips.

    Yeah this happens to me too, to some extent. My bombers can definitely see the units but they get confused and circle around them without dropping any bombs. This is on buildings as well as vehicles.
