Red Stars are only the physical tokens. Controlling an HQ counts "as a Red Star" toward victory, but is not actually gaining a Red Star (as you can't lose Red Stars gained, but obviously can lose HQs). So, if you didn't gain a token, you didn't gain a Red Star.
This. And you should make it your business to gain a red star token as these cannot be taken away from you, making you a much more dangerous player.
