I apologize, been searching so long I've given up hoping for the mercies of the fellow players here (no luck solving this on my own)

I had played previously, my brother introducing me to the game in the original Dread Lords.  I liked it well enough I just got a digital only copy with both expansions. (Don't get me started about how much trouble I've had finding a digital manual which I still haven't found.  Stardock should hire me to help with their really lousy website design.)

Previously I liked to play working towards an influence victory planting influence starbases fully loaded all over the place.  The problem now, in my first game is that I can't find any more starbase modules... no galactic consortium, no insurrection coordinator, no ability to even research them OR even the cultural conquest.

I am playing as the Yor (which I had done before and used the same strategy)  but it seems like it's completely missing tech paths that I like for my method of play.  What am I missing here?
