Apostles and Relics

[GimliLegolas]

Playing on Deity as Norway. As usual I don't get a religion but as the game goes on I start to accumulate quite a lot of faith. I was able to capture Mont St Michel and so hit on the idea of generating apostles and sending them out to get killed and generate a relic. This works quite well and I manage to get 11 relics but I have space for more. Then, all of a sudden, my apostles die in theological combat but no longer produce a relic.
Is this because there is a fixed and limited number of relics available? Is it something else? any ideas?

I think so.
Since each relic has unique name, it's evident that there can't be infinite number of them.

Check this reddit post. Apparently, there are 24 unique relics and when they are all created, no more can be earned.

Interesting. I was wondering that in my Khmer game. I think I had 14 relics that game. I wasn't on deity though, the AI is likely to get more relics on that level. This is good to know.

Thanks guys. So, I got 11 out of 24 - 11 science, 44 faith and 88 tourism. Not bad.
