I have enough credits to buy another ship but at stat dock requistions it says I need a plaque. I currently use a science ship but have been collecting loads of equipment and would like to try it ou on different ships. If you could skip the tutorial I would probably not do this buy another ship thing. So any helpful answers would be greatly appreciated......oh and if you see good equipment for cheap I might have been the one who posted it. Fighting for a fair and balanced economy!
You can only buy at your current rank or below. So say Captains can't buy Admiral rank ships, only Captain and below. If you have the credits you can buy any equal or lower rank ship.
You get a plaque when you're promoted, which gives you a free ship at your new rank. You should know this if you've already gotten your first science ship.
If you're trying to buy in the same tier, usually leaving the Ship Requisition room and coming back can 'reset' the vendor to show the correct list (that is, not requiring a plaque for your current tier). I've had to do it here and there.
Sorry I was not entirely clear in my last post. I am trying to buy within the same tier. Basically I have a tier 2 science ship and want to buy a tier 2 escort ship. Oh and before I forget...thanks for all the helpful advice. This is my 4th re-roll character and I am just experimenting. Thanks.

I've run into the same thing, when you buy the ship with a plaque the others still cost a plaque until you leave and come back to talk to the vendor.
