Yep, that's what you have to do. You've got one of three options when you get a hire set. You can either hire one of those three, promote a specialist you already own, or do neither and not hire/promote and stack your hires.
This is a dangerous yet good strategy to use. It's good in that if someone attacks, you can suddenly pull out a few specilIsts they didn't see, like a martyr to explode their army they sent at you. However, this strategy also leaves you with a lot less specialists than everyone else, so it's a downfall for that matter. Delicate balance
