This is your best bet. Failing that, there's not much to do if you can't out-produce him.

If you can get just one other player to help you, you can "double up" on a minefield (each player lays 100 mines in the same sector). Then when is uber-fleet runs into it (there's always an uber fleet!), counterattack. That trick will work once. And is a questionable tactic in some groups, so you might want to clear it with the game owner if you aren't sure.

Easy soultion sends lots of small weak ships against it then just basically swarm.

So the New Alliance is pretty much screwed. LOL!

It's 4 empires against three, and the one with the Talisman has almost as many ships himself as any two of ours.

Oh well, there's a lot of RP going on and it's fun anyway!

Maybe you can get around this. Is it possible to attack, not the ships, but the system they're in? I think making their suns into black holes would work rather well, if you can afford it.
