While playing world-builder during lunch, I tried out the following
on a test world.  (It was created with 88% land, and 2% sea.)
All devices were detonated at <odd>, <even> codes.

	 1Meg    2Meg    3Meg        4Meg        5Meg	Megatonnage
	  4	  8	  10	      14	  18	# sectors wasted
-14  - - - - - - - - - - - - ^ . ^ ^ - - - - - - - - - -

    For when you care enough to send a the very best:
	    20Meg

To end it all, I detonated a 100Meg nuke.  It created a circular wasteland
inside -20:20, -10:10.
