So if I get it right, we are back to the old rules and it is ok to post non-CW players now? I'll start looking through the replays I collected in the mean time - I got a bunch of replays with obvious convictions... starting with this one:
Sorry, no screenshot, but IMO they would help anyway.
At start of the replay take a look at PAPRIKA2's base (I of course put a spy drone there) - what does he do? Builds a MD, uses a CC scan and destroys it... but wait, theres more. My second drone is already there, a bit to the right, and PAPRIKA2 goes there with his Missile Defender and throws his FIRST spy drone almost exactly on top of mine. But thats no over, later I also put my third Spy Drone and he yet again scans and destroys it.
He also goes with his first Auro straight for my Airfield without uncovering it first.
You can only lock on units with MH, not on buildings.
And that is relevant how? From the point he build his Strategy Center till the moment he use his Aurora, he didnt use Startegy's scan. There was also no spy drone and he used his CC scan to detect by spy drone little earlier in his base. But if you really want a lock-on, than thats easy, his second Auro goes for my humvees.
When the aurora is on attack mode it speeds up and takes no damage. He probly forcefired a non revealed building, i think that's what he meant when he said "locked".
You can't target structures under fog, just units. He used sat scan before giving the order to the aurora. Nothing else looked suspicious. When you place a spy drone it is visible to your opponent for a short amount of time, especially easy to see on the radar.

You've missed it; the situation you are talking about happened later, when he already destroyed my airfield with an Aurora and now I was rebuilding it - THAT is when he used his scan, but there was no scans before, with my first airfield.
Also please check for lock-on under the fog when he went for my two avengers. There was a spy drone there, but IMO those avangers where out of its range. (Ovarlayed an image from skirmish test)

Hmm? I'll look again but you said first Aurora so I was just watching his airfield and followed the first one that took off. I can tell from that screenshot though that the avengers would have been visible and then moved out into the fog when you hit X, the lock was probably done while the fog was regenerating.
Hmm... It is taking a while, so I've recorded the whole "airfield" situation - it starts moments befor he build his Strategy Center and ends just after he destroyed my airfield. Everyone can judge by them self if you had a chance to know it is there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_H5cWAnXU0&fmt=22 PAPRIKA2 is selected all the time and thus you can hear everything he do - any CC scans? Strategys scans? I've also moved my camera around to show there are no spy drones there.
