Unless this is the first round of the game, increase the round counter die by one to show which round of the game this is. For example, if you are starting the second round of the game, move the round counter die from 1 to 2. Also, pass the first player token to the next clockwise human player.

Next, unless a scenario states otherwise, the AI will advance the DB token to the next ascending region # (or back to region 1 if on region 8).

Finally, carry out the following two steps a number of times equal to the number showing on the round counter die (for example, perform both steps three times in the third round of the game).

1. EXECUTE A CHAOS DIE EFFECT: Look at the number showing on the Chaos Die, and execute the corresponding effect from the scenario card’s Chaos Die table.

2. ADVANCE THE CHAOS DIE: Advance the Chaos Die to the next consecutive number. If it shows 8, cycle it back to 1.

Example: In the first round, you roll a 4 on the Chaos Die, perform the #4 Chaos Die effect listed on the scenario card, and cycle the die to 5. In the second round, apply the #5 Chaos Die effect, cycle to 6, and apply that as well. In the third round, you will do this three times, applying effects for 7, 8, and 1.
