How to increase BP per week?
After playing for 40 hours my BP per week is still a mere 38.
All the constant events and projects are eating away my BP.
You guys facing the same situation?

it says that BP per week is limited by a cap due to the ecommy, so maybe your ecommy is to low for the cap to rise? going from what it tells you at the start of the kingdom building . sorry for bad spelling, i hope this helps you.

Basically you have a few options:

For every level you have an adviser you gain +1 BP per week, though if an adviser exceeds your economy adviser you lose any additional BP bonus. Basically keep your economy adviser at the top.

Tanneries give +1 BP per week, you can have 1 per town rather easily.

Trade agreements can give BP.

For instance I am at 65 hours currently and I have 46 BP per week so your 38 isn't low. I have literally a dozen projects I can't do because of my BP problems (and I have bought hundreds using gold).


Unless something occurs that gives ABSURD BP bonuses (for instance that 1500 BP agreement, but its 1500 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ BP) I cant imagine getting a reasonable amount per week.

Further going off that trade agreement it gives me +12 BP per week (with the ability to get more so slowly up to like +20). This means it will probably take ~100 weeks (700 days) to get back the base BP put into the agreement, so unless there are literally hundreds of weeks at some point I cant imagine a world where any trade agreement is viable.

I so much am confused by this too. I also haven't topped 40 and I'm about 30 hours in.

you can buy BP but it is a bit pricey too. Hassuf if that's spelled right sells i5th in the capital

Level up your Economy stat. You get more and more trade agreements appearing as you go up through Rank I, II, III etc etc. I think it also helps if you level up your Relations and Community stat as well. Trade agreements give BP per week. There are also buildings and such you can place in towns that provide BP over stats, usually. Also, you can buy BP for 80 gold per 1 BP at the merchant with the big queue of people in the Capital town center.

The whole Kingdom is based on those stats. You don't progress much without them - each time they upgrade, your kingdom upgrades, unique projects appear which provide boons, and potentially more chances of development for towns and regions also appear.

It eats up 14 days each time you rank up a stat, but it's definitely worth it if you want your Kingdom to flourish.

When you buy the one BP is it period or per week?

80 gold per point. I spend two hundred thousand on this easily. And it's one BP for 80 gold, not one per week or I'd get thousands weekly by now.

It's not 80 gold for 1 BP on your weekly gains, it's a straight 80 gold per BP to your currently stored total.

So you'd buy 100 BP for 8000 gold, you wouldn't have like +135 BP a week, you'd have +35 BP a week and +100 BP to whatever your current total stored BP was.

The weekly gains are from city buildings and trade agreements, for the most part.

Once you've bought the nice magic items you want from the traders, you might as well buy BPs to invest in your barony. It doesn't make a good weekly income irrelevant but it certainly helps, especially if you turned down the extra BPs at the start.

Trust me, turning down the extra BPs at the start is the best decision you could ever make. Take that from the dummy that decided to take it ( <)

I have been wondering ever since what would have happened if I agreed to that contract. More expensive buildings?

Also please note you are getting 30 BP a week from Swordlords but also 50% of your weekly gain goes back to Swordlords as a tax. At some point you will probably get independend to get rid of that tax . (tutorial info I dont know what happens)

The large agreement for 1.500 BP isn't so bad. It amortises itself after 2 and a half year, which is not that much. Paying for it is hell of course :)

1500 BP = 120 000 gold and for example the half orc crafter gifts a 15500 worth chainmail repeatedly. If all masters are this good there is no problem to get BP.

Each village after the first has 2 masters.

What is the downside to the Agreement with Joseph Sellemius? I definetely need the BP, but it sound's like a devil's bargain.
