[Torg] What would you do as a GM if the player did this?

Actually that's one of the nagging questions that I always had. Is there any
possible way you can get rid of a DD? I don't remember anything mentionned
but I may be wrong (in fact I am often wrong).
It nagged me because it feels like DDs are sort of deus ex machina. It feels
like WEG wanted them indestructible because it would have upset the whole
Torg thing if they could be destroyed.
It feels also contradictory because the stories show that DDs can be hurt,
even if only by other DDs but then even for other DDs it seems beyond their
own already big powers to summon the destructive energy to harm even one of
their own.
Of course, getting rid of a DD is something that should not be easy in any
case. But why bother with giving stats for them if there is not a possible
way to get rid of them? For example, WEG gave stats for the Death Star in
Star Wars but there was a possible way to blow up the Death Star.
In the end, this is a minor issue and it has never bothered me really to
play the game. But I just like to nitpick :-)
