Barbarian BUG No greatsword

[abbyzero]

I hosted two games today and both times the Barbarian started with no Purchase Deck Greatsword.
I had Cataclysm OFF and the City ON.
The Black Knight didn’t have his Spiked Shield (understandably) and the Barbarian didn’t have his Greatsword.

The great sword that the barbarian gets is from the cataclysm purchase deck-the great sword in the city is in the armoury deck-and that is not the same deck.
The only way the barbarian can start with the greatsword is if cataclysm is on

Annoying that it wont draw from the available purchase decks, but oh well.

You can't get a greatsword from the purchase deck if the greatsword isn't in the purchase deck

I was talking about the City purchase deck.

The Greatswords in the City expansion are found in the Armory deck and not the Purchase deck. Since the Barbarian gets his Greatsword from the Purchase deck, he will not get one if the main Cataclysm expansion is disabled.

I know this is old, but can I just mention how stupid this is? Let alone misleading. To buy an expansion because you want the characters in it, only to find out half of them don't even have their full effect unless you play the expansion with it is mental.

We would never have this problem on the real board game, we would just take the greatsword from the cataclysm's deck even though we're not playing it. I really think this shouldn't be a thing.
