He was a little pissed by this, so he hired an alliance of Mercenaries, who did a little setting upon. However, they don't seem to be very good at OGame tactics, and my fleetsaving and building between raids meant that I could go and visit their client and work him over. He's been relegated into newbie protection now.
What to do about the Mercenaries. One of the alliance, the weakest member was only about 20 systems away, so I colonised a vacant planet in his system and I've been using it to raid his planets. Whereever his large fleet was, my smaller fleet was somewhere else. His main planet is being starved of resources, and whenever he moves part of it away from the main planet, I go pay it the small fleet a visit.
Apparently he's told another member of his alliance that he's in trouble, but he hasn't realised that whilst he hasn't been growing, I have. In two hours, a fleet of up to 13 battleships (worst case) will attack the planet. However there will be 29 cruisers and 12 battleships awaiting him, plus the ground defences....
..if I move fast enough I can start raiding this second mercenary for resources too....
...definitely heading towards a minor Empire with lots of vassals here.

The chance for a moon to be created is 2 %
1 Light Laser could be repaired.
Just to prove we can be friends after a quarrel, I sent him a note:
Dear yyyyy,
Your donation of 495,000 metal and 165,000 crystal in the form of 11 battleships was most generous.
To leave a tip of 1LCargo and a Heavy fighter even more so....
Love and kisses
