Comments:

Hammering describes the method of executing a maneuver not the weapon utilized in the maneuver.

Hammering maneuvers tend to derive from a cocked position.

Hammering maneuvers tend to be linear, but can also be circular.

Hammering maneuvers tend to emphasize multiple Dimensional Zones simultaneously.

Hammering maneuvers tend to emphasize torque as an integral part of its embryonic execution. This can be attributed to the fact that hammering maneuvers tend to be cocked, which allows for more optimal Weapon Alignment.

Hammering maneuvers typically travel on a somewhat downward path (typically utilizing Gravitational Marriage), rather than an upward or horizontal one.

Hammers require a Contact Penetration range of depth.

Hammers differ from thrusts in that hammers can be executed in both a pushing or a pulling fashion.

Hammers can create Prolonged Exposure of weapons.

The Postural Position of both you and your opponent have a large influence over the available paths an intended weapon can travel.
