how many great prophets?

[Wheastonian]

Is there somewhere I can tell what the maximum amount available is in a game? Or before a game? I assume it has to do with map size/amount of civs in a game. Thank you

The number of available prophets is equal to the maximum number of religions allowed. Check the religion screen.

Per https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Great_Prophet_(Civ6), “the number of Prophets available in a given game depends on the size of the map, being equal to half the default number of players plus one.”

Thank you! I was pretty sure I understood but really wanted to be sure before trying religious victory for the first time.

The table that tells you how many religions for different map sizes is at https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Map_(Civ6)#Map_size. This handy table also gives you information about other factors that are dependent on map size.

Once a game has started,and you want to know how many, if any, of these religions are still available, you go to the religion icon in that row along the top left. The screen opened by clicking on the icon tells you how many are taken already, ,which civ has taken them, and what beliefs have already been snatched by these religions.

Religion Expanded

have as many as you want, up to 16. Makes a difference on higher levels.

Playing a religious victory at the moment with Theodora, All her units get a +3 bonus for each holy city I convert.

On a huge map so 7 possible religions, annoyingly getting close to the end of the game and only 5 have been founded. Still a +15 bonus is solid.

Interesting how some civs didn't go for any religion.
