I have no idea. My character didn't even have the slightest inkling that they could do more than they did. Certainly Gerontius never said anything about it where Evander could hear him.
That honestly was part of my problem with the invasion. There have been lots of interesting hints about things since it ended, but during the actual invasion it was virtually impossible to get any information that wasn't hopelessly tainted by enemy propaganda since the invaders themselves were (as far as I know) the only source of information. Other than the very broad and occasionally cryptic statements made by the prophets, that is, which I personally did not find to be useful. Mostly I found them to be dispensing warnings that were obsolete once the scope of the invaders' powers became clear.
