Hi
How many points are the objetive/strategic towns per turn? Apart from cities and combats are there other ways to get PV?

Thanks

1 VP for each strat town, 1 VP (cumulative) for each objective.

You also get VP by killing enemies, and in some cases if you achieve something very special, like taking Louisbourg with the English in the FIW (but its in the scripting engine).

Basically: control the territory and kill your foe :)

what do you mean by cumulative?

do you get 1 VP on the 1st turn you take a new town, 2 on the second, and so forth? so holding an objective for a long time becomes exremely important?

no, I meant that a strategic city which is also an objective gives 2.
