Is the Prophet considered a magic being?

[GrudgeBringer]

Playing R'yleh I made the standard Commander the prophet (a Slave Prince-non magical).

I recruited some Infantry and some Lobo Guards (magical units) and tried to put them in the Prophets army.

The Infantry was no problem but the Magical Lobo Guards would NOT join the army.

My question is:

When the Commander became th eProphet he became a Lvl 3 Priest and sacred.

Isn't that considered Magical so he can lead Magic troops?

I tried this 3 rimes thinking I may have a problem with the game so I rebooted and tried the game from the start....no luck.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!
