How can you spread out bombers for their attack run?

Postby content404 » 27 Jan 2016, 00:20

When ordering a group of bombers to attack a target they tend to bunch close together or form a line and can get easily destroyed by AOE AA, or even kill each other when bombs hit a shield. To get around this I've tried assigning groups and giving each group a separate movement path before hitting the target but this is significantly time consuming. Are there hotkeys or orders that will tell bombers to spread out before hitting the target?

You can use ui party to quickly iterate through units, giving them a different move order somewhere on the map. Then select all your bombers again and give same targets/split attack
