In spite of the situation at hand, Maine still finds a bit of excitement seeping into him as Brigitte explains the hammers. Weapons are something of a passion for Maine, though he'd never call it that. He loves trying out new ones. Loves to take them apart and figure out how they work. He even enjoys researching their origins, often learning bits and pieces of history just because he wanted to know why a weapon was designed in a specific way.
So he turns his head slightly so that he can better listen. It's not necessary, what with his enhanced senses and Brigitte being on his back, but it's a mark of his attention turned into something physical. And, even when Brigitte says that he wouldn't want to see someone after they're hit with such a weapon, Maine really would.
The Freelancer has no particular interest in gore. But he wants to see the impact. He wants to fully understand how the weapon works.
To her question, Maine offers an ambivalent noise and another small shrug. "Human-powered," he explains. "Suit enhances."
He might be able to hit someone with the same force as a rocket-powered suit of armor. However, the mechanism behind it wouldn't be a rocket; it would be his own flesh and bones.
