Re: How hard do you expand?
The solution to this is quite easy. Place a planet killer type ship in each of the systems where you both share colonies and his defenses are weak. Gather a fleet near in his home system. Declare war and let loose the canines of conflict.
Soon you won't have to worry about nasty colonies.
On a related note, I do wish that trade treaties didn't equal a free pass into your systems. Just because you can trade doesn't mean you can just move in.
