I wrote something in the idea thread about this before:

Why fight on Indar vs Esamir? Apart from looking at which one might be more lucrative for you, if Indar and Esamir had unique properties worth fighting over then they each have their own value. If they are differnet from a resource abundancy standpoint then that also changes the value of the continent.

The continent domination is also a form of end game and could be used in daily/weekly tracking to see which empire is "winning"
What if there were 6 different "factories" for certain equipment or vehicles, that you can only make if you hold the hex it's in(and perhaps even one or more adjacent hexes), and of course, they'd be spread out, 2 per continent? Are there any weapons, vehicles, or abilities that would be balanced if you could only have them while you held that base?
