I know this is prob a noob question and when I enter the game u will all Torture me to death but i was wondering. Lets say Me, a NT citizan, gets a admire rating with the Itani, is it posiable to buy there special ship the 30k one or do I HAVE To be a Itani to get it. Cause I was looking around in the screenshots a nd I see there was a red Itani ship and gold so I am guessing its either going to be released or is and I dont know about it.

You need to get an extremely high combat piloting license (lvl11 maybe), purchase your own nation's special (the Maurauder), take it to the black market sector, and trade it for the Itani Valkyrie, also adding 100k of your own money. It's a very involved process.

Meaning you either need to find an XP exploit, or you need to waste about 50 hours of your life sitting in front of the computer screen. In a row.

If you aren't Itani, but you're in good standing with them, you can dock at the stations in 1 and 4 to buy Valkyries. If you're not in good standing, then you'll have to trade on the black market.

How good of a stading do I need and if I can buy there ships does my lvl have to be up to the lvl I buy my own special ship or can I buy it like any other ship since it isnt my nations special ship.

ok, as the second person in game to get the specials, here's how it works.

Alex Rowe (itani) got his itani special at combat 12.
I (Spellcast; Serco) traded my way up to trade 11. Since i can still dock in 3/6 I can purchase the marauder.(tho my rep is mildly towards dislike cause i had to kill several NT characters who wouldn't stop attacking me)

Once you have 1 special, you have them all, or you have acess to them all anyway. 100,000 credits and the hull of a special ship will allow you to purchase any other special ship in sector 18.

I dont know for certain, but i highly suspect that the prometheous will be availible to people who can dock in serco space around combat 11, not 12.
