American History Lux, a new strategy game that lets you replay 10 wars that have shaped American history. It's available to download now for PC, Macintosh, and Linux.

American History Lux includes the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, the Mexican-American War, the US Civil War, three separate World War theaters, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and finishes with the recent Iraq War. Background information is provided on each, along with links to in-depth online histories.

Each war comes as a map containing the real geographic layout marking the important cities, forts, and regions of the conflict. The backgrounds are decorated with historical imagery from each period. Thematic music rounds out the interactive learning experience delivered by American History Lux.
