Cloak back. The time is ripe for suicide economic warefare. Send cloaked ships 
with the means to wipe out a planet in one decloak. Netronium bombs should do 
(on a big ship or at high tech). If you can't face his fleet kill his empire 
out from under it, even if he guards one planet you can let the weight of the 
ships with no empire backing them kill his money supply, meanwhile sabotage, 
sabotage, sabotage.
