Topic #4 covered this already. Cheers.
Just additional info:
- Units will tend to prioritise the next unit on the aggro table which is closest to them. This doesn’t apply only to Mothership, but every other unit in game.
- Certain units will have a higher aggro priority compared to others.
If you need a table, you can check out the exact numbers here:

Though I’d blame it on the lack of research, rather than just complaining about a unit problem.
