    In the description of D-charges it says that they are placed with the 'place deployable' skill and detonate at the resolution step of the OES.
    In place deployable it says that the token is placed durind the conclusion step of the OES.

    So the D-charge cannot detonate because it is not yet placed in the resolution step?
    I don't think thats meant to happen, but what do I miss?

    > A Weapon or piece of Equipment that has been deployed on the battlefield will remain in play until the end of the game, until it is destroyed, or in case of Deployable Weapons, until detonated.

    > They detonate during the Resolution of the Order, without requiring a Roll.

    I don't know what you mean.
    What I was talking about:
    During resolution they are not on the table, so they can not detonate?

    We can safely assume it's not intended interaction considering their description.

    The token which represents the Weapon isn't placed until the Conclusion, so the D-charge detonates before any token has been placed to represent them. Which is fine, it just means we don't need to print off D-charge tokens. The rule seems pretty clear that the D-charge does in fact detonate even though not yet represented by a token.

    D-Charges don't generate a token. They are a weapon that can be used as a Deployable Weapon, using "Place Deployable" skill to do it.
    Since they don't generate a token, they "will remain in play until the end of the game, until it is destroyed, or in case of Deployable Weapons, until detonated."

    And the D-Charge in "Deployable Weapon mode" says: "They detonate during the Resolution of the Order, without requiring a Roll."

    My emphasis.

    I think that is intended, and I always played it that way. Thank you for your answers...
