I recently tried to make a masterwork meteor hammer, and hero labs isnt showing an option to get the AC bonus for using the weapon in fortress mode. It shows the shield AC option if the weapon is just a vanilla Meteor Hammer, but it doesn't for masterwork or magical.
Actually, it has the "trip" special quality.
Also, If you take a close look, you have two buttons on the weapon. One "both" for the two-handed mode and one "double" for use as a double weapon. If you click "both" only, you can activate the entry in the armor section like a normal shield.
So, the weapon works fine...
I was getting ready to reply to the above post with this but I can't replicate your solution. I choose "both" only, but no option for the meteor hammer is showing up in the armor tab. I wonder if this is some relation to the Monk's Robe bug? (Sometimes you get the proper AC bonus, sometimes it's one less than it should be. It can vary each time you load herolabs, or even change just by adding or deleting an item.)
In any event, getting the shield bonus should not require a separate choice. The weapon description states "...in fortress mode you cannot use it as a double weapon but gain reach and a +1 shield bonus to AC." When you aren't using it as a double weapon, it should automatically give a +1 shield bonus.
