Does occupying the region of an enemy Stronghold score points, or must I capture it?
Capturing a Settlement defines when a stronghold counts as captured.

You must capture it. Points come from controlling the settlement, with a control marker, so for a Stronghold the defenders must be eliminated; merely standing in the region or besieging it scores nothing.
