SCAR is the scripting language Relic's using in game. If you get a Fatal SCAR error, it means that the script that runs the game has a fault.
To help Relic identify and fix these for a patch, after you get the error, you can open the console with Ctrl+Shift+~ and then copy the text out to your bug post.
There are two know major issues:
The Fatal Scar Error is an error in the scripting engine. In particular this error commonly happens on levels 4 and 8. In level 4 it is caused by building a second HQ before the game prompts you to. If you build a second HQ, then when you get to and destroy the Ork Base, the game is basically confused as it tries to tell you to build another HQ, yet you already have one. To avoid this problem, simply do not build a second HQ until prompted by the game to do so.
The problem that occurs on level 8 is when you are capturing a command point near the citadel. If you leave the command point before fully capturing it, this can cause a Fatal Scar Error as well. Hope this helps.
