I was playing around in Hero Lab and threw together a Human Weapon Master with Weapon Focus Bastard Sword.

Bastard Swords can be wielded two-handedly as a martial weapon and one-handed if you have exotic training. This character does not have the Exotic Weapon feat.

I threw on a Large-Sized Bastard Sword, equipped it for both hands and it passed all validation checks and is showing as legal gear:

Bastard Sword (Large)
Two-handed - [Melee +6] [2d8+8] [19-20 x2]

It is my understanding that, when you wield a weapon that is a size larger than you, it requires an extra level of 'handedness' to use (light, one-handed, two-handed, unusable) and since this build does not have the ability to normally wield a Bastard Sword with one hand then I cannot two-hand a Large bastard sword.

Am I mistaken about this or did I, in fact, find a bug in Hero Lab?

Thanks.
