Exactly. Their hope is that once they weaken or destroy the Membrane that separates the Objective (our) and Subjective (weird) worlds, they'll be the only ones with the power to cast
real magic, i.e., fireballs, invisibility, lightning from the bum, etc. And having gained such kewl powerz, THEN they'll be in a position to, dare I say it?, rule the world. But right now, the best they can do is summon energies that manifest physically as monsters. And I suspect that most of them will go crazy, or get eaten by their summoned pets, or get offed by their fellows long before they achieve their personal goals.
