Advisors and monthly monarch points
Advisors are described as a way to increase monthly monarch-point generation, helping accumulate points for technology. The discussion says advisor level affects the monthly gain and notes that higher-level advisors can be expensive.
How it works
The source reports a range of one to three points per month for advisors in its context, with a DLC caveat; it does not establish current-version values or specific advisor costs. Administrative, diplomatic, and military technology each draw on their corresponding point pool.
