Nope, he definitely shot him in the head. BAM! But on the commentary for the ep, joss and Malcolm discuss how much they were looking forward to the character coming back. Or maybe the actor coming back. Which is weird. But all hail the mighty Joss - he'd have come up with something brilliant. Sigh.

And maybe a TOWN on Whitefall could get hit by these Reavers. But there could be many towns on Whitefall that survive okay.

Quibbling over semantics now are we...

Point is Reavers do on occasion hit groundsiders.

Absolutely Reavers hit towns, cities, farms. But the impression that I was getting from various posts (perhaps incorrectly) was that if the Reavers hit Whitehall/Whitefall, then the place is HISTORY. I was just pointing out that the moon's inhabitants could survive largely intact.

Could be that one town would be destroyed. That being said, it is also possible that the moon only had one town.

Naw I don't think the Reavers hit Whitefall because Patience said "Alliance don't scare me" now I don't think they don't scare her because she’s so far out of their way that they leave her alone, I think that she’s got some firepower packed away so that when the Alliance comes for her their in for a nasty surprise.

Now the Reavers Trans-U had no visible weapons except that mag grappler so it’s very vulnerable if Patience has a few MANPAD SAMs (like the Stinger or SA-7) or AAA guns (IE the big gun Mal used at Serenity Valley) sitting around from the war. Even tho Patience is in the middle of nowhere these weapons (especially AAA guns) are dirt cheap and low tech yet effective.

Also Whitefall is a moon of Athens so I think help is close by.

I don't think it's a matter of them doing it to be tough. I think the Reavers as a group are barely aware of what's around them- sure some can pilot- but ship's maintnence isn't something they worry about asides from it being able to move.

I don't think all Reavers fly without containment- I just don't think that particular ship cared- which would eventually kill them... that's why Wash called it suicide. Unless of course from going to the ends of the galaxy or universe (I forget which) and being exposed to space radiation gave them resistance to other forms of radiation... but they never said that, so I don't know!
