Yes, but unlike gold economy, a gem economy is not disrupted by putting the fort under siege. Raiding a gold economy forces your opponent to expend more gold defending his gold economy, by having to rally forces to retake the lost land, then suppress the unrest created by the raiding. Ermor, however, does not really need to "rally" forces. I'll just redirect the next blob heading for the front line to take a drive-by into the province and reflag it easily. Raiding is not nearly the inconvenience and nuisance it is to Ermor as it is to a living opponent. The undead always pay their bills in full.
