**Waaagh_Gonads**

Beetween themselves and their armour?

Nothing, underpants, bodygloves?

Cannot recall this being in any official release or novel.

**helgrenze**

Hmm I think you have to go back to the RT days for that.

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Feth and gakk are SM swear words
even I know that

**Devastator**

in one bl books salamander has bodyglove under his armor

**Mistress of minis**

Purity seals of course! Sorta like a man-kini....only more zealous...

**Melissia**

I doubt they wear anything other than their power armor. And in fact, their power armor is described as so difficult to get out of they rarely remove it anyway.

Hmm so they would sleep, eat, what about going to the restroom

.

**Riffzor**

They.. remove the groin-piece thingy when going to the restroom? *shrug*

**Melissia**

Nope, the suit collects waste and recycles it into a tasteless grey paste which they then eat.

So, no Mr Coffee magic turning pee into water huh?

**xxmatt85**

They would maybe wear robes, I know would but really it how the cpather works.

**Vindicator#9**

Wife beaters.

**Grey Templar**

they wear a body glove for comfort.

when not wearing PA they normally go with robes or tunics.

a SM can wear his armour on a near permanant basis, but they do remove it when possable. they have to put on a special cream to prevent hair growth, it gets uncomfortable. (Brotherhood of the Snake IIRC)

So that's why all the guys without helmets are bald!

**Bloodfrenzy187**

In the HH series it talks about loken and torgadon wearing combat fatigues.

Yup, thats what I read too. The DA Interrogator-Chaplain in one of the newer Novels runs around in a knid of burnusi while not on a mission and even rides around on a combat bike in that get up (probably leading to sights, man is not meant to experience...shudder).
A Squad of Chaos Marines in one of the newer Guard Novels even hang around oiled up and wearing just loinclothes most of the time... yeah, I know...shock and awe probably

**templeorks**

I remeber reading that they wear robes of some sort.

**Grey Templar**

except Space Wolfs.

they go commando

Are we talking about Black Carapace? Or is this something totally different.

Okay, well this picture makes it seem like they just pretty much put the armor on and that's that.

**Melissia**

Hah, so they wear leotards!

**templeorks**

Melissia wrote:Hah, so they wear leotards!

That is what it sounds like. super human leotards!

**Fiend**

I read that they wear bodygloves underneath their armor. I can't remember which novel though. I imagined it as a thin material like in templeorks avatar pic, but with a space marine under the clothes and not a, you know, a woman.

**Kilkrazy**

What do Space Marines wear in bed?

**Shadowbrand**

Tightey-whiteys.

Please let it be super human feetie pajamas.

**aka_tizz**

No no no no you're so wrong!! They wear pijamas with the Emprah! Everybody knows that

**Melissia**

I didn't think Marines went to bed.

**aka_tizz**

They do, just not in the man-and-woman, more like in the i-haven't-slept-been-fighting-for-the-last-5-weeks way...

Depends on the books, I'd suppose; The books for the Thousand Sons and Iron Snakes depict the marines as very often going without armor when in the comfort and safty of home base, and the Alpha legion book implies the same for purposes of espionage

As for the question of the thread itself, the couple of books I've read describe body gloves.
