Useless Continent Bonus'
There are some useless continent bonus'. The lab one, since labs aren't worth the expense. And "Live Fire" (GTS grads start at Sgt) ,since by the time I get it all of my soldiers have already been through the GTS.

So, of course, my current game as "Live Fire" for TWO continents (Asia and Australia). It's bad enough that it is doubling them up, but it's a useless one.

As the old, old saying goes.
"That's Xcom baby!". You had a plan? You had things that you don't want to happen? Game doesn't care!

Though two of the exact same that you don't want is just a bit too far below the belt more than should be allowed. For what it's worth, all jokes aside, you have my sympathy.

Two continents with the same bonus sounds like a mess up. Have a look at the "Modify Continent Bonus" mod. I've used that in a running campaign before.

Every time I play, the continent bonuses are mostly useless. Although I do love the GTS Sergeant one, but I've only seen it as a resistance order.

I build the lab early about 50% of the time when playing on Legend. I dont find them useless but i dont find them "a must" either.

I hate the reinforcements continental bonuses. The extra soldiers are beyond useless and really just makes things tedious.

Just as a cool flavor, the Double Agent perk was attached to the continent the Skirmisher HQ was on.

Random assigned bonuses can be random. Sometimes very random... For myself, the continent bonuses that give "more supplies, more intel, more weapon slots, auto complete gear" get attention ASAP.

Really? I love having the extra soldiers on missions. It means more guns for me. I also try to RP it as much as I can.

Just don't let any "volunteers" (Resistance or Advent) pick up loot. They always keep it for themselves.
