Extending the Avatar Project

XCOM 2 is known for terrorizing the players with turn-limited missions, and this is not limited to the battles. The war against the aliens is also "time-limited" because the Avatar Project will not stop its progression unless the player takes steps in stopping it.

This is sort of cheating, because clearly the game was designed with the looming completion of the Avatar Project, but whatever. No one is judging, and more importantly, no one is watching.
