I'm trying to expand into another region to stop the avatar project, but after a spending spree in the black market I have 20 intel left, not enough to expand!
I've tried sitting at the HQ and scanning, but I don't get any more intel.
How can I get more, quick (1 block left in avatar project!)
The presence of Buffs / Debuffs can be seen in the lower-right of each units' selection icon. For enemies, this is the icon you get when you have sight on them. For your own units, this is in the lower left, by their name.
Hovering over this icon will show what buffs/debuffs are currently active.
There are several mods that do this or something similar:
The True Concealment mod makes timers only start counting down once you've been revealed.

In order to gain Intel you can scan at your HQ, but you must ensure that you have the 'Gain Intel' perk selected at your base.
When you arrive at your base, on the left hand side of the map marker is a fist icon, click this and then spend 25 supplies to change to the 'Gather Intel' perk, and then when scanning you will gain Intel.
The other perks I've seen so far are 'Quick Building' and 'Heal Faster'.
