Setup
When setting up "The Redhorn Gate," remove all copies of Snowstorm from the encounter deck, and set them aside, out of play. These cards are placed away from the playing area and do not interact with the game until instructed by the cards of the scenario.
Ally Objective: Arwen Undómiel
In this scenario, the players must guard an "ally objective" card, Arwen Undómiel. This card has a constant effect that reads, "The first player gains control of Arwen Undómiel, as an ally." This means that the first player takes control of Arwen Undómiel, and can use her in the same manner he would use any ally he controls. Other copies of a card titled Arwen Undómiel cannot enter play by any means. At the end of each round, when the first player token passes to a new player, the new first player takes control of Arwen Undómiel.
If Arwen Undómiel leaves play for any reason, the players have lost the game. Additionally, if the player who controls Arwen Undómiel is eliminated, the players have lost the game.
Caradhras
Caradhras has the text, "Players cannot travel to Caradhras except by quest card effects." This means that no card effect, other than one on a quest card, can make Caradhras the active location.
"Secrecy X" Keyword
Secrecy is a new keyword introduced on player cards in the Dwarrowdelf Cycle. Secrecy lowers the cost to play the card by the specified value, provided the threat of the player who is playing the card is 20 or below. Secrecy only applies when the card is played from hand, and never modifies the printed cost of the card.
