Burn them for being a heretic, obviously.

Ehhh....
I would just hit them with a NFW, the smell of a burning Nurgle follower... That will haunt me.

I mean, I usually shower at least once a day (usually twice if I'm working).
It shouldn't be hard for anyone, really, to simply take a shower before you head out the door, especially if it's for social reasons.
Actually it can be.
But not for most people that can stand around a gaming table and play toy soldiers.
Haven't had a bath for years. I wish my house had one. Sometimes showering is too taxing and a long soak would be tickity-boo.

Can't you just go to a British YMCA and take a dip in the sauna or the hot-tub?

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.
Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

But seriously, how would a space marine smell? Power Armor can't be very ventilated. They'd have monstrous jock itch and smell like it.

Not out here in the sticks
If I ain't up to showering there is little chance I will be able to walk to station, catch train, get tram etc
Tonight I am rosy cosy toasty sitting up in bed after a shower and it is glorious
ps I did get dry before getting in bed, to to clear up any potential confusion.

I have the misfortune of regularly attending a GW wherein lurks on person whose breath could wither a cactus. And he always wants a chat!
I've started offering him chewing gum as soon as he approaches. Gentle cues tend to work best, as most of the smellies I know are adolescents and thus have egos more sensitive than a Hive Tyrant's fun button.
Also given all I have heard about Space Marine power armor, it has mechanisms to deal with most effluvia - ever heard of one removing his power armor to take a leak? - so I'd imagine either the genetic modification disables endocrine glands or the sweat is removed subdermally by some mechanism in the suit.

Power suits are fully air conditioned and equipped with a plug in Glade air freshener. Automatically Appended Next Post: ps I do believe Jasmine and Orange Blossom is the fragrance of choice. SW's prefer musk.

Ah, I went to the local GW again earlier this day. With no stinky players around, it was kinda refreshing. It amazed me somewhat. There was a LOTR tournament over at the local GW, and I was suprised they were all well kept. Damn, two of them were actually dressed very 'classy', for what can be called classy for the average gamer. Is it just me, or is it only the ignorant 40K gamers that smell?

I went to one of the screenings of the Ultramarines movie this morning. The theater had an overall whiff about it. Anyone else at the Dallas screening?
