Yeah you can have multiple prophets by charming/mind controlling enemy ones. Additionally, I've heard that ryleh dreamlands madness occassionally produces additional prophets.

Yes, the insane cultist who get random orders often turn themselves into prophets

I think I was up to about 8 in my rlyeh game. I was still annoyed when my original one got killed though, sicne he was the only sane one.

You can also get multiple prophets by summoning an unique monster (King of Earth etc.), prophetising him, letting him die, waiting until you can appoint a new prophet and doing so, and finally resummoning the original prophet, who has retained his prophet status.

You can also prophet mercenary leaders which can be fun altho I dont think releasing it and then getting them back quite has the same doubling effect.

Wow seems like two prophets is alot easier than I thought it would be. Is this a bug in the game or does Illwinter want multiple prophets running around??

It is alot of fun though, so hopefully they keep silly stuff like this in the game

I hope it isn't a bug and stays in the game. It's really cool, every turn now in one of my MP's, R'lyeh gets a prophet, must have tons.

By the way how insane does a commander after be before he starts doing mad stuff? Equipped a mage with dimensional rod, he is loopy 2...I mean insane 2.

He is a 4S 2D 2F 2E mage in a lab/fortress/temple what's the very worst he could do, should he go bonkers? For example, would he teleport off somewhere well stark, staring, fruit loopy or what?

You can't pull it off until you've got a fair bit of research completed (barring a lucky break with rlyeh, but that usually takes a while too since you need a combination of a commander, insanity, and luck with the order they perform, plus the insanity part means that they're somewhat less than 100% functional). Having an extra mobile temple/smiter/divine blesser on turn 40 is cool, but hardly game-breaking, so I think it's here to stay, even if it wasn't intentional. (And from what I hear, Rlyeh's bonus prophets were intentional.)
