An unexpectedly large Reaver attack last night against Hale's Moon Colony has left nine colonists dead and dozens injured. The long running attack, which involved at least two light transport category boats crewed by Reavers, happened over a period of at least three hours.
Reaver casualties are believed to number at least twenty five killed and an unknown number injured but able to escape. Recent attacks have seen more of the large Reaver craft in place of the more common shuttles and light landers seen in past attacks.
One of their transports was disabled and subsequently destroyed on the ground by a well placed satchel charge, limiting the number of attackers able to make it off world. Colonist Miles Santini was quoted as says "We's a mining colony. One thing we's got is a bucketload of stuff what goes boom."
Historically, Hale's Moon has not been in the main Reaver attack corridors and this recent activity is considered quite unusual. The Town Council is working through navtrak data and available ships logs in an effort to determine the source of the recent escalation in attacks.
The townsfolk are deeply indebted to those who stood to defend the town and our hearts go out to the families of those lost or injured in this most recent violent attack.
