How do you unlock new Advisor Slots?

[Muted Kobold]

As the title states, how do you unlock new advisor slots? I just managed to Upgrade to Town, and now I am exploring into the mountains to the west.

BP is really slow to come by apparently, and it doesn't seem like buildings actually pay themselves off at a fast rate in this game. So expansion is basically at the rate of 34BP per week. And I'm about to raise the rank of one of my stats.

you need to find ways to increase the stat number for the needed advisor slot ie arcana, relations, espionage etc. so once say relations is at something like 10-15 (not sure) you get diplomat etc. that's not the "rank" of the stat but the pure stat number.

you can find resources on the map (points of interest you can claim), stats are raised on successful completion of kingdom problems and opportunities as well as building. for building, you mainly need stuff to boost espionage (watchtower, villa, goblin/kobold quarters) but boosting arcana a bit with mage towers is nice too.

Ok... and is there a way to effectively increase the rate of which you get BP? or is that just forever ♥♥♥♥?

increase bp generation by actually "ranking up" advisors, any advisor, getting more settlements (if you completed trade deals that increase bp/settlement), and a few other projects when you increase kingdom ranks - particularly economy. you can build a mint building once economy rank is at 7 or 8.

it is really slow at first but snowballs into endgame if you do everything. so basically like real life - the more you have, the easier it is to generate more. you should buy bp from merchant only if you have an emergency or you want to claim a new region - never delay on claiming a new region and making a settlement there.
