Are there any missions besides the penultimate one that intel can be spent on?
I've just finished my first playthrough and was surprised to note that when I prepared for the penultimate mission, the option to spend intel for various special effects was available - increase the squad size, better concealment, etc. I never noticed this on any other mission, but it seems a neat concept and it struck me as unlikely that there would only be one mission in the entire game where this is possible.
I am thinking that maybe the options were never presented the rest of the time because I tended to be running at very low intel, spending it immediately on things from the black market, but by chance I had intel at about 300 going into that mission (playing on normal). Was I just missing the options the rest of the time or is it really the case that this is the only mission you can spend intel on?

Is the advent network tower the last mission?
The Alien Fortress Assault, codenamed Operation Leviathan, is the final storyline mission of XCOM 2. The mission is unlocked immediately after the ADVENT Network Tower Assault (Operation Empty Mask).How do I get Intel?
Intel can be gained a different number of ways. You can gain it each month from the Council, and you can also gain it from Scanning remote areas that pop up on your map as the days pass.Fuse - All Intel Locations - Mission 1 (The Inspector Trophy / Achievement Guide)
