priests spells?

[Pocus]

what will be the spells available to priests in Doms II? I found strange that so few were availables, and that each faith got the same.

Will we got an area divine armaments, with varying effects depending of the magic of the pretender?

Fires of Faith sounds like a priest spell...
Oh, and for those who haven't played Dominions I, Dom I had:
Banishment
Blessing
Sermon of Courage
Divine Armaments
Fanaticism
Sacred Blessing
Holy Avenger
Smite

Unholy spells, i'm not sure about the list, i havent played Ermor for a while(In Dom I, only Ermor and a single summon had Unholy magic...)
Unholy Strength
Unholy Protection
Wrath of The Sepulchre
Anathema(a fun spell...)

The priest are not intended to be AD&D clerics. There will be a few more theme specific spells for certain nation themes, but these are analogous to the bless effects of ordinary priests or the undead boosters of unholy priests in dom 1. Also the varying bless effects in dom 2 will also serve to differentiate various faiths.

But i think you have changed the unholy spells a bit...
I mean, i have seen an early Dom II pic with a C'tissan Priest with Unholy Magic...(i believe it was called "Tomb King")

That would be one of the theme specific changes I metioned, in this case for the Ctissian theme Desert Tombs.

It's a theme spell. Only C'tis priests on one particular theme can cast it (don't remember what is the theme called).
