Situation: Beseiged Fort on a VP province
I've run a lot of cumulative VP games, a mechanic that could be used to set up interesting games if its implementation didn't feel so much like an afterthought. Still, I have your answers.

Question: When VPs are awarded, who gets them?
Cumulative VPs are awarded anually on turn(s) 5+12N, e.g. on turns 5, 17, 29, 41, etc.

The beseiging army? Nobody?
VPs go to whoever controls the province when the turns mentioned above starts. Control of a fort is required for full control of the province and whoever controls the fort is awarded the VP. Thus, in cumulative VP games it is highly advisable to build forts on VPs to keep them out of the hands of raiders and to slow the oppositions' acquisition of them.
