    If my memory serves me, the duel between Gelt and the Bright College patriarch was described in the White Dwarf magazine when Balthy was first introduced. The duel went more or less like this: The bright wizard thought that Gelt's challenge was laughable, and was sure of victory, since he only had to stay away from Gelt, whose touch would turn him to gold. The moment the fight started, he unleashed a blast of fire at Gelt, who conjured up a metal shield to protect himself. The bright wizard wanted to finish the fight quickly and turned the beam fo fire into a continuous ray of deadly heat. Gelt's shield began dissolving, and the bright wizard focused all his power into the beam. Just before Gelt's shield failed, the fire mage realized that his legs were beginning to turn into gold. His focus lost, he stopped the spell, and Gelt walked up to the staff and took it, with his opponent half-gold. Gelt explained that he used the heat ray as a conduit to 'touch' his opponent, and that magic of metal is an amalgam of several winds of magic, fire wind included. The fire patriarch then pledged his fealty, with just his head not yet solid gold, and Gelty released him so ghat they can both fight the enemies of the empire. That is what i remember. I may be messing up the details, it's been ages since I read that. Love the videos, mr Bonds.

    Yep, that's the one in 6th edition I referenced just below. See Warhammer Armies: The Empire (2000), p. 54. Gelt: "Thyrus Gormann, you forgot that the essence of Metal is in equal parts Stone and Fire. This has caused your defeat. I could take your life now, but the Empire needs your powers against its many enemies, your Order requires your leadership, and I would rather have you as a friend. Do you recognise my authority?" Gormann: "Aye, you won the duel in a fair fight. You are our Supreme Patriarch now and you will have my respect and my loyalty... until we meet again here, in eight years." Gelt: "I'll be ready, Gormann. I'll be ready."

    Nevermind the fact that even if you survive this somehow, your bonemarrow being turned to gold means you can't produce red or white blood cells anymore. So if you're lucky, a cold takes your now massively immunocompromised self out before your cells effectively suffocate, as your body is unable to transport enough oxygen to them.

    Pure gold can also bend from pure muscle strength alone. Even if your head didn't cave in, a much more painful death would be possible. Swinging a sword would snap your arm, taking a step would break your leg, turning your head would snap your neck, and screaming in agony only would bend your jaw like the world's worst bendy straw. Your body would literally be tearing yourself apart and stabbing you from the inside with gilded shards of snapped metal.

    @@8eewee Well, gold is much, much denser than bone. You'd probably gain about a hundred pounds or more immediately. This would also likely cause your shins to break- or at the very least bend into being useless. I'd bet that would be rather painful. If you had the misfortune to fall on your chest or back, either could easily become seriously deformed- possibly killing you outright and definitely making life difficult. Breathing would be difficult in either case. Without blood platelets, you'd become deathly anemic. Might take a while to die from that, but effectively you are suffocating because there is nothing to carry the oxygen from your lungs to other parts of the body.

    "Gelt" is just antiquated German for "money". Jiddisch, the language used by central European Jews, is a mixture of a lot of languages, but most prominently German. This is also why a lot of the Jews that migrated to the US have German surnames. Contrary to common belief, surnames ending in "Berg" are not specifically Jewish, they are specifically German. ("Berg" - "Mountain") "Ashkenazi" translated means: "German". It derives from "Ashkenaz" - "Germany".

Latkes are just common potato pancakes (see Rösti, Hash Browns or Raggmunkar), Bagels are most likely from Krákow (or just German) and by god if you think Gravlax is Jewish i'm legally obligated as a Scandinavian to slap you.

Some may even turn against your friends as living corpses, but you have my word that I will use my arcane gifts to ensure your bodies are given unto Morr's Garden. This is the greatest reward, more than even gold, for the fate of your soul is an eternal concern. Now come, follow me. Strike down the undead that rise against us, allow me to find this eldritch amulet. I ask not for my own selfish studies, but for the good of the Empire!” -Balthasar Gelt

    Good video! As much as I would love to see a noob guide for Lord Skrolk or Thretch, I think the next noob should be about a lord from a faction you never talked about: Mannfed or Vlad for vampire counts, Khazrak or Morghur for beastmen, Orion or Durthu for wood elves or Wulfrik and Throgg from Norsca.

    I'm on for all of that except Orion and Durthu. I'd love to see Wood Elves, but they've got a DLC in the works that's probably coming with a major rework. I think he should hold off on talking about the Wood Elves until after that drops.

    The 6ed Empire army book has the official story on how he became Supreme Patriarch. It basically comes down to him and the current Supreme Patriarch (Fire). He turns the fire magic of his opponent against him and it ends with the fire wizard encapsulated in metal (doesnt kill him though). From then on Balthasar Gelt is the Supreme Patriarch.

    I thought the Wizard duel was between Gelt and Thyrus Gorman (the Bright wizard who you fight in one of the quest battles) with Gelt managing to use some magically trickery to make a touch spell hit from a distance, turning Thyrus into gold and claiming the win.
