Hey, I'm not sure if it's allowed to ask for help on hunting for specific files but this doubles up as a question about the best place to get books.

I've been looking far and wide for the renegade game studio's Transformers rulebooks and managed to find the core rulebook from some weird site but not from any of the book or torrent sites. But I'm still missing the accompanying books like the campaigns and the expanded character sheet journal. Could anyone smarter or more resourceful help me with this hopeless quest?

And also the last time I pirated books was so long ago that people were offering them on their own websites basically, what is the best place to find books nowadays? And is there a way to submit the rulebook file I found to book piracy site like library genesis? In case someone else comes looking for it as well.

Wild, MAM usually has most things but as far as this game is concerned it only has A Beacon of Hope. It must actually be pretty obscure to not exist fully there.

If I'm googling correctly this is a private tracker? I don't think I'm able to get into many with my current setup but I'll try to go and see. Even one book would be forward in this project and they really seem to not be popular to share. (Makes one wonder how many people even purchased them lol, the game is not very good or coherent but I want to homebrew it into something that works and also have the files for the sake of completionism)

Yes, MyAnonymouse is a private tracker for books and audiobooks. It’s probably one of the best private trackers for these things, though there might be a better one specifically for game-related books, I’m not sure.

MAM has occasional public applications, but you will be expected to share what you take.
