Ignore the Forced effect on the Mount Doom campaign card if it is in play.
Forced: At the end of the round, the first player chooses a scenario (The Black Gate Opens or Mount Doom). Each player at the chosen scenario draws 1 card. Each player at the other scenario reduces his threat by 3. Then, the player who controls the Gwaihir objective-ally may give control of it to another player (at either scenario).
At the end of the round, if the last player at either scenario is eliminated, both teams lose the game. If the Mount Doom scenario is defeated, both teams win the game.
