You're thinking WAY too hi-tech...
Rocks.
Kinetic Energy Weapons (KEWs) are the most destructive and the cheapest cost of anything. Strap a nice big rocket on a big rock - aim it at where the planet will be in 2 months or so - since it'll take that long to get up some decent speed - and let fly. You can have anywhere from just massive explosions and crates all the way up to pasteurized planet.
