pg 144, Tandoran player characters have the Scales quality and a Tough Skin quality (functionally equivalent to Bark).  Scales quality is incompatible with other dermal qualities or modifications. (pg 130)

Reposting from another thread as this is probably a better place for it:

I'd like to input Tandorans onto my excel generator, but not sure where to place them with regards to Adjustment points and I'm not sure it's clear?!?  I was going to put them in the same category as elves as that seems to work but was wondering if there was a more official view?!?

Thanks

I wouldn't put any restriction on it, personally.  the author (Cliff) obviously didn't think it was important, so you shouldn't either.
The Metatype column is weird and its exclusions seem arbitrary in 6e, built on deep Shadowrun legacy ideas of which metatypes are more special than others.  There are combinations where Elves and Tandorans could spend all 13 possible metatype points, just as there is a combination where humans could spend 11.

But I have to pitch it somewhere if it isn't spealt out anywhere, so matching it to elves is as good a place as any I guess

No one is picking A Metatype for any character, so whatever you choose will be fine :)
