I don't think you can determine your opposition to the SoE unless you actually provide some poor half-starved, crippled, mind-blasted, drugged, tied up broo yourself (and even then the Law of Dramatic Necessity will intervene and summon something *much* worse than Billy the Broo).
I think *someone did a SoE, but the Bat was much more than what they expected ("Well, King, sir, we was hopin' for a couple scorpion men from the footprint ta show up, we really din't 'spect the Bat...")
As far as Bat-Detection range, Runegate had less than a day's warning if you read the Composite history account as taking place in one day
