And they would be okay with killing a million or two innocent people in
the process? I know BNW isn't really supposed to be a superhero setting,
but I thought it was supposed to be at least vaguely heroic. Oh well to
each his own.

Well the devestator was:
1. Probably an alpha
2. Had LOTs of money

Remember that a gadgeteers gadget shouldn't be something more powerful
than another power-package. Going by that the most powerful bomb they
should be able to make would be equivalent to a bomber (a few grenade's
worth). Where would they get weapon's grade plutonium? How would they get
the bomb past security? If they flew it in they would probably get shot
down before they got close to the white house.
