Sure, you'll be a real pain in his unmentionable, but the planets will
most certainly be equally easy for him to get back. I'm not saying
that it's a bad idea, though, provided you start on Short or Medium
Range - otherwise you would be unable to reach his planets before he
gets his defenses built up (in which case your small ships are
"toast").

Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say 'NI' at will to old
