A player who controls the Transpoter Room may also send troops back to the Transporter Room from the Corner Pads. (Not sure about the XML on this one. Andy?)
If these restrictions can't be done then there should be a bonus for holding the entire Section, otherwise there should be no bonus (if the restrictions can be done).

Perhaps the four corner pads could connect to the center circle. It does not appear to be a space now, but if you made it one-way out to the side pads, with a large neutral starting force, players would still be required to go around it to take the pads.

I would like to point out some things I see though, the overall presentation is a little cramped, the text is a little hard to distinguish at times you may want to change your font, you might also consider making a key for the bonuses, the overalll graphics could use some work both for border clarity and visual appeal.Try for a professional look to the map. just my first impressions keep working this should turn out pretty well
Try for a professional look to the map.
