Answer

Ruling: Yes, the defender gains a point for conquering the battlefield they hadn't scored on this turn, even though it is the attacker's turn.

Sequence:

  • Attacker moves to uncontrolled battlefield
  • Showdown begins
  • Defender moves a card to the battlefield (e.g., using Zenith)
  • After combat, attacker is stunned and recalled to base
  • Defender remains and conquers the battlefield, gaining a point
