The Siddha looks very good. how much did it cost? How much research it requires?

National, Conj. 7, S4, 35 pearls.
There's Summon Devata at Conj. 8, S5, 45 pearls. While Summon Siddha says that they are powerful priests and mages, Devatas should be powerful priests, mages AND warriors.

Are the Devata best national summons Bandar Log gets?

Highest-level Conjuration, at least. Some others, like the W3E3S1N1 Nagarishi with one of those paths as a random pick, AND Holy 1, are lower-level summons (Conj. 6) with higher requirements (W3E3 and 40 gems, when Bandar Log's best mage has only S3N2 and a WESN random. Even the cheapest naga mage requires W2E, and while Nagini are useful (stealthy mage-priest seducers), you basically need to design your pretender around getting them if you don't want to rely on empowering. All the nagas have pretty hefty upkeep even if they are sacred, because they are all recruitable units in Patala. Nagarishi costs 450 gp, for instance.
Of course, this doesn't directly relate to this AAR as Kailasa can't summon them yet, but since you asked spesifically about Bandar Log...

Pity you can't take the Olm with them.

Now don't steal my thunder Endo!

I will be summoning a Devata in a few turns, so you can all take a look at him.
