Other appearances
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War (Fujimori manga)
Waltz has a minor role in Fujimori Nuttsu's Genealogy of the Holy War manga, which adapts the events of the first generation of the game in a more comedic manner. Similarly to chapter 2 of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, after Sigurd had invaded Agustria, Macbeth had ordered Waltz's mercenary band to attack Sigurd's army while they were distracted defending the nearby villages from the bandits pillaging them, which Macbeth had Waltz gathered.
En route to Sigurd's army, Waltz mentioned to Beowolf that Princess Lachesis had joined Sigurd's army, causing Beowolf to feel conlicted due to his friendship with Eldigan; Waltz, unaware of this, thought that Beowolf was feeling down because they were essentially helping bandits raid villages and sympathized with him, but acknowledged that they were mercenaries and they need to execute their jobs as they had been paid. Beowolf, realizing that he had already been paid, abandoned Waltz's mercenary band to join Sigurd's army, confusing Waltz. The actual battle between Waltz's mercenary band and Sigurd's army is not shown.
