Chronicles of Arcus ("COA"), a.k.a. Arcus Lux, is a collection of three soundtracks created for the modding community. The albums were first called Arcus Lux (lat. Archlight) but as the project progressed, the creator Jones King, decided that it would fit the 'story' behind the album better to rename it Chronicles of Arcus. The name Chronicles of Arcus refer to the landmass known as Arcus in the fictional world for which the albums were made. If you are looking for more detailed information about the world or setting of the Chronicles of Arcus please visit the World of Arcus page.

Reception & reviews
"Arcvs Lvx is a great initiative and one of the most - if not the most - significant contribution to the modding community for a long time. The tracks of the score are great, and fit very well the theme of RTW - ie they are perfect for battle- and tension- tracks. King's men and the Turn of the Tide are my favourites, with Enter Lord Protector coming right behind them. Overall, Arcvs Lvx Pt.1 is a *great* piece of work [...]"
