the tundra

[Fletcher]

The 'Tentacles' on the Nomad ships are mostly used as places to fire from. (Sorry Tena, no Nomad Porn at this point.) Having its skeleton on the outside, as stated abit back, wouldn't make any sence. It'd be like figthing some kind of warrior in which you step infront of your shield and take the blow yourself, rather than hide behind it to deflect attacks.

A natural exoskeleton? Let me just Wiki a little quickly...

An exoskeleton is an external skeleton that supports and protects an animal's body, in contrast to the internal endoskeleton of, for example, a human. Some animals, such as the tortoise, have both an endoskeleton and an exoskeleton. In popular usage, many of the larger kinds of exoskeletons are known as "shells".

Well in this case there is already an endoskeleton, also known as the structural integrity of the Tundra vessel itself. (Endoskeletons are the skeletons of humans and such)

I think, again that is dangerous. I think that this exoskeleton is used to enhance the structure of the Tundra, as stated, with more firing points and a possible way to 'bleeding' shock wave energy from torpedoes and other explosive ordinances, but that is taking reality into account.
