[ASLML] A control question

Hi,

Getting ready to play "First to Strike" from Streets of Fire. This is an
older scenario, an looks dead even in ROAR. I have an opinion question...

The VC state that the Germans must "solely control" a number of buildings to
win. This phrase appears in a few of the older scenarios - made before we
all became so warped as to insist that all terms be defined in the index. :)

How do you interpret "solely control" with regard to a building? 

1. Building control (which would allow enemy units to be present in the
building)

2. Building control AND there can be no enemy units in the building

3. Some other definition???


My "gut" tells me that "sole" control implies that no enemy can be present
in the building to win, but of course, this is not defined in the ASL rules.
My feeling is that if you interpret this as "building control" then you make
it too easy for the attacker. 

BTW, this phrase also appears in "To the Last Man" VC. 

Thanks
Sam
