Possible Bug?? Prophet *poof*, never returned

If a prophet was sent to kokytos or to inferno, does that count as the prophet dying? If you can reprophetize, would you get two prophets if the banished prophet returns?

No, Inferno/Cocytus don't count as dying. Globals stay up, and he may eventually return.

well, the inferno/kokytus isnt quite possible as he died in the first 4-5 turns of the game.... i tried doing a rush into enemy territory with the stealthy demonbred prophet and they sent back his finger....

and no, i wouldnt have made this post if there was a prophetize command on my commanders, and yes i think i wouldve noticed that and been expecting that after 60+ turns.

i cant remember if he died in winter but im guessing not as the game starts in spring, right?? and it was only, at most, 10 turns later that he died but im guessing closer to 5-6 turns...its been awhile back now, im in turn 70+ now and still there is no prophetize for me to make a new prophet, and he hasnt returned, so, im chalking this down as a bug.

for reference:
demonbred, abysia EA, turn between 4 and 8 (99% certain there) died in enemy territory by getting caught by patrol.... == possible bug that will wipe out your prophet from the game...

that would surely suck in an MP game, and to only be able to find out after another 10+ turns (after which im sure people wont want to restart).
