Question: When a Barbarian uses “Appetite For Destruction” to select a Fighter move, should he be selecting from the starting moves (Signature Weapon, BBLG, etc), the level-up moves or any of the above?

Any of the above.
Agreed. The general consensus, derived from the core book, is that a multi-class option can emulate either core or advanced moves. That’s why there’s that bit about how taking spell casting encompasses both the casting and the regaining-spells moves (core moves)… but the ‘from the move list’ heavily implies a list ala the Advanced Moves.
… I’d want to take Blacksmithing and see how the GM handles that since (if you’re referencing the Barbarian write-ups I’ve seen) the player doesn’t have a signature weapon.
Sean Fager Theoretically I would rule that by choosing blacksmithing you get the signature weapon. But I also porbably wouldnt allow it without good reason.
I’d just ask you which of your weapons was your signature weapon. Wouldn’t give you the signature weapon move, but that’s the one that any further reference of signature weapon would point to.
Shadi Alhusary you wouldn’t get SW. The rule that allows you to get 2 moves because they are connected only works on Starting Moves.
Also, when you multiclass at level 2, you can only choose starting moves.
Tim Franzke Where in the rules does it say that you can only choose starting moves? I have never seen it interpreted that way
The multiclass moves allow you to gain moves from another class. You get to choose any move of your level or lower. For the purpose of multiclassing, *any starting class moves that depend on each other count as one move*—the wizard’s cast a spell, spellbook, and prepare spells for example. If a move from another class refers to your level, count your levels from the level where you first gained a move from that class.
emphasis mine
Most of the multiclass options (and I think all the core class examples) say to take another class’s move as if your level were one lower. So, if taken at level 2 you could only select what that class would have at level 1…. which is just the core rules. From level 3 onward the Advanced Moves come into play.
