I think it should be noted that, at least for the Alliance side, you CANNOT already control the base to get credit. It must NOT belong to your faction to get the credit, despite the fact that you can stand there and let the timer count down. if you do this and your faction already is in control, you don't get credit.

To Capture a tower you must wait by the flag. When you are close enough a meter will show up letting you know the capture timer. Note** If you are stealthed as a druid, rogue, or night elf then you will not be able to see the capture meter or capture a tower until you unstealth.
just to know ;)

Description
The Hellfire Citadel wages constant battles with our forces. We are holding our own so far, but we can't yet launch a real offensive against them. To do that, we need forward staging areas. Our scouts identified three fortifications near Hellfire Citadel. We want you to help secure these forts. Capture each fort, and then report back to me. May fortune shine upon you in the conflicts ahead, {name}, for you will no doubt clash with Horde forces eager to gain these same fortifications.
