Rolling for initiative at the beginning of each turn is prompted automatically by the computer. You are first presented with an opportunity to buy die before the roll by spending resources in your stockpiles. You are given three dice by default and can purchase up to an additional seven dice for a maximum of ten dice total.

Once you have finished purchasing dice you click on the “Done” button and are taken to the “Determine Initiative Display.” You will now see the dice of each player faction lined up on the display. Left click on “Roll Die” to start the dice rolling. The player with the highest roll wins the most action points for the upcoming round and goes first. Action points and position in the round of turns are doled out for all players based on the players’ die rolls. Ties are re-rolled until a winner is determined.
