Martial Weapon Proficiency and Bastard Sword - Page 2

And actually taking the feat Martial Weapon Proficiency(Bastard Sword) is a completely legal feat selection.

It's greyed out as non-proficient, but add it and equip it in both hands and it becomes proficient.

Well crap... it never even occurred to me that it would work. That's not terribly intuitive UI, but hey, it works. Punt that bug I just filed then.

No problemo. We'll still look into making it clearer, though.

I must have missed that in the RAW. I'll just pick longsword. :-)

Thanks,

Hi. I know this is an old thread, but I've just bought HeroLab and I'm having exactly this problem. I tried buying the sword anyway, but it is not giving me the option to use it two-handed. Please see attached photo for details. Is there any way to fix this?

Tick both the boxes - so that HL knows you are using it 2-handed. You won't have a validation error or non-proficient message.
