1. An extra defense crossing.
2. An extra (5?) number of points for their crossing.

Another option instead of rewarding the proper way is to penalize the new way by;

1. Making the crossing worth no points AND/OR;
2. Adding one to your tower strength.
That's answers my question. I just wanted to know if the defense being crossed like a drawbridge or a sally port (I didn't realize initially that the sally port was included) caused the special points/tower increase/etc. to occur. Thanks.
