The post that started this tangent wasn't Star Wars specific but referencing planet destroying in general. In some settings starship sheilds may stop an attack that can destroy a planet.

What is the largest mass that it can destroy? Does it do any damage to a Gas Giant? This is GURPS, and the way we determine that is by it's dice of damage.

Planetary shields MAY work, depending on their scale.

In GURPS this is the sheild's DR. In order to know what the DR needs to be, we need to know how much damage the attack does.
I am not saying that this is really necessary, but it is trivial to figure out.
