You should have posted this thread on Spacebattles. You would have gotten more responses, most likely.
BTW, an ISD can do this:

Probably the ISD. Farscape isn't exactly big on spacebattles you know?

A single ISD bombarding either a moon or a planet. Though there is some reference that it could possibly be the BDZ of the planet Dankayo. Even if it's only a moon, the ISD is still creating blasts and craters the size of small countries.

Not with a single turret.

You mean freespace right :)

Not with a single turret.
Which is why an ISD has plenty of turrets. That way, the Empire could shower the Rebellion with its love. Deadly, emerald love.

Unless I am mistaken about the identity of the games, this one includes the GTVA that owned bombers with explosive payloads rated in the low gigaton range that did squat against Shivan shields outside of subspace. However, going ROTS ICS, the shields of a Imperator class ship jump into the millions of gigatons, so this is not exactly conclusive.
I would say that there is not enough info, but I am inclined to believe that the Shivans should be potentially capable of winning this. The Imperator cannot exploit the subspace weakness and a fleet of a hundred Sathanas can destroy a main sequence star, so they have some pretty impressive weapons.

Over 200 GT's per average on its medium turrets. It only takes a few hours for a single ISD to reduce a planet to nothing. The only advantage the Farscape warship has is it has two wings instead of the ISD's one.
Can you change the fighters on the ISD to Interceptors and it become even more so if you do so.
