The Apostle is a religious unit in Civilization VI. Each civilization has access to this unit.
Overview[ | ]
With their high Religious Strength and versatility, Apostles are the workhorse religious unit.
Apostles can perform the following actions:
- Initiate Theological Combat by attacking opposing religious units.
- Spread Religion, similar to Missionaries.
- Evangelize Belief, adding a new belief to a religion. (Expends the Apostle, requires 3 charges.)
- Start Inquisition, unlocking the ability to purchase Inquisitors with
Faith. (Expends the Apostle, requires 3 charges.)
All Apostles start with a choice between two random Promotions. The Mont St. Michel wonder grants the Martyr promotion for free after the random Promotions are generated.

Notes[ | ]
- There appears at this time a possible bug where the game does not let Inquisitions to be started even if 2 charges remain.
- Evangelize Belief needs 3 charges but will consume all charges and remove the unit (possible a bug) if you have more from a promotion.
