What happens to Leaders and Companions when all the army's units are eliminated?
The designer said characters can't opt out of the Army, and the rulebook covers elimination.

They are eliminated too. Leaders, Companions and Minions with the army die when its last unit does; Nazgul return later as reinforcements but Minions and Free Peoples Leaders are lost for good. Characters in a battle cannot opt out.
