Also, it isn't always clear when you are talking about Bantu mythology and when you are talking about the way things really are in the settingFor instance, at the start of the section about Wakonyingo, when they are physically described, it says that they have tails - but at the end, it says that on Yrth they don't have tails.

This looks like a very interesting setting indeed. I love the fact that it is based on an historical culture that has been sadly overlooked in RPGs.

I did find it a bit confusing to work out what was going on, though. It would help if the premise is stated very clearly up front on the main page itself. It was only when I went to the "Major Projects" index of RPGnet Wicki that I learned that the game is set on Yrth. A historical timeline stating exactly what happened when, so that I can see the relationship between real world history and the history of this new world, would be very helpful.

Also, it isn't always clear when you are talking about Bantu mythology and when you are talking about the way things really are in the setting. For instance, at the start of the section about Wakonyingo, when they are physically described, it says that they have tails - but at the end, it says that on Yrth they don't have tails.
