This is part of the campaign. In the begining at least it doesn't let you research certain tech branches. If you play a custom game you should see that all the missing techonlogy is available for research.

I'll add that I've run into this bug. I was able to succesfully upgrade, on two occasions the first when I was correcting a typo in the name, and the second when I relized I had made a mistake and needed to change an engine.

Reply to Campaign - First Scenario Compare notes in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I started the first map, but I'm probally going to end up restarting. I left it on normal difficulty since I've read the first few missions are supposed to very easy, but I didn't build colony ships fast enougth, and my ally took both of the worlds in the center.

Reply to DOWNLOAD WOES! in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Its currently downloading. The server timed out once, but I was able to resume the download easily.

Also the download speed and precentage done sometimes disapear from the main window, and while the download manager shows the speed, the precentage is at time nowhere to be found.
