I'm fairly certain that's working as designed. Siege starships definitely aren't supposed to be able to target most fleet ships, I'm less sure about Bombstars but suspect they follow the same rule.

Yeah, that is correct. Both the Siege Starship and the Bomber Starship are designed to fire only upon structures, forcefields and others starships (including Hybrids).

Am I remembering correctly that they can target FF bearers, or was that changed?

Hence the "Forcefields". So yes, they can and with impunity.

Yea, this is intended (and ff bearers get it because otherwise you can't hit big stuff under them).

It's not that I have a problem with you using them to kill fighters, etc, but I imagine you would get fairly annoyed if they went around one-shotting fighters when they should have been going around one/two/three-shotting guardians and whatnot. The simplest way to make it stick to priorities was to make it impossible to do anything else ;D

BombStars and Sieges can't hit AI HunterKillers either :(
